I just had WMP9 open and I clicked OPEN URL and then tried to open a local file which really shouldnt work but it does....I didnt know that until today!

Im gonna try it with realplayer and VLC also.....


EDIT:

It doesnt work with any other player I have

Realplayer 8+
VLC 0.7
Screamer player 3.8

Every webpage is still only a directory just a remote one and not local

Ya I guess so Jay :)

VLC does open media links. It opens videos on my phone. Can set it like that on my PC too. But then I have a modern PC

Ya I just tried VLC again,I went to "Open Network Stream" and tried to listen to a song I have (Address C:\My Documents\Songs\Hollow) and it says Invalid......

What version of VLC do you have Stevie??

Re: Strange things we notice around our computers...
 

The latest version 3.0.21 on windows 11..

If you goto OPEN NETWORK STREAM can you open a local address??

Im just curious...........

Re: Strange things we notice around our computers...
 

I would imagine so. It would allow streaming from a NAS on your local network or another device set up in a local network.

The increase of users bad language?

Yes I have noticed that also...

Why the need to use bad words?

Don't come to Scotland then. We can form sentences with just swear words:D sometimes bad words can be complimentary as well here.

Hehe I hear ya buddy!
