My Google Talk is not showing the current music I am playing in Windows Media Player even though I had enabled the show current music status. After consulting Google Talk Help, I found the following tips. So, the following is for the convenience of those who faced the same problem as me.
Windows Media Player is designed to disable all plug-ins (including the Google Talk music status plug-in) whenever Windows Media Player or your Windows desktop crashes. To re-enable the Google Talk plug-in:
- Open Windows Media Player.
- From the View menu, select Plug-ins > Options...
- From the Category section of the Plug-ins tab, select Background.
- Select the Google Talk Music Plugin checkbox.
- Click OK.
You'll need to close and restart Windows Media Player for your change to take effect.
Thanks a lot. I have having the same problem and this solved it immediately, but I did not have to restart either program. :)
ReplyDeleteI've followed these instructions as well, but the google plug-in isn't showing up under the windows media menuu for me. I'm going to try on my home PC and see if I can get it to work there.
