1344852 2013-06-06 05:04:00 Getting Windows Media Player 12 to display flac recordings is difficult, but I have found out how.

I had dozens of albums that would play if I clicked on them in explorer and chose play, but they were not visible in the program, in 'Artist' or 'Album view

Installing "xiph open codecs" did the trick.
xiph.org

Now I can see all the albums and over 300 tracks that had been invisible.:)

I understand if you prefer Flac or dont like using WMA but there's really no problem as long as you dont turn on DRM.
