Media Player Defauld ?

Post by Johnny Harris »

My computer is configured with the AOL Media Player as default. I cannot play steelradio.com with this player.
I don't know for sure that the media player is the problem, but would like to know how to make Musicmatch or Winamp the default.
Thanks in advance for any help.

On AOL...go to Settings; then Preferences; then scroll down to "Multi-Media" and click it> then uncheck the Box that says "use the AOL media player for supported media types".
And as long as you have a media player like Winamp or Windows media player installed ..than one of them will play it.

this might work the player you want to make default reinstall it as the last thing itstalled alwys will be the default player. I also suggest you try Real Player that wil stream Steel radio.com.The quality is better only problem it tends to bufffer a lot but that is down to a 56k modem only reaches 31k.
