Video in Windows Media Player (WMP) isn’t played correctly when it is in a playlist, how can I make that work fine too?
If you find that a video disappears (turns all black) or turns purple and green about 20 seconds before it stops playing or that video for every file in the playlist isn’t displayed, turn off overlays. To turn off overlays in Windows Media Player 9 or later, do the following: click on Options under the Tools menu and then click on the Performance tab, then click on Advanced and clear the Use overlays checkbox. If the problem continues, try turning off the Video Mixing Renderer (VMR). You can turn off the VMR by clearing the Use video mixing renderer checkbox (which can be found on the same location as the Use overlays checkbox).
