I downloaded the best known working copy of the correct CODEC's for WMP and, installed them on my PC.

I got mine from DirectShow at the following link:

Supposedly, all I do is download it, install it, and then I'm supposed to be able to auto-play any of my FLAC files in WMP 11.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?? Or, do I need to somehow tell the files (force them) to play in WMP?

When I double click on one of my FLAC music files, it just says "this is not a supported file type, etc, etc." and won't play.

What are people doing to get their FLAC lossless files to play in WMP and MCE????

Directshow?

Blech. Go right to the source, my friend.
