Dear all
Can i use WMP on the BBC? I have tried to listen to footyn interviews etc & keep getting the following message!
"MMSYSTEM281 this file could not be played, install a drive that supports this file"
I did use WMP last year whilst in USA to keep in touch with local news etc, but some people seem to think i can only use the "Real 1 player"
Any advice appreciated
cheers

I'm pretty sure you can only use realplayer, The bbc have a page all about it:

Hope this helps,
