Using Windows version 7 and Windows Media Player (WMP) version 12
Problem is Windows Media Player freezes when I play certain files. The file could be any format mp4 or flv but certain files freeze. When I jump to a certain time, it freezes for a while before playing
May have something to do with bitrate that is not compatible with frame size. Below are examples of videos specs that have this freezing problem.
Not sure whether need to change settings on WMP.
Downloaded some codecs to install but still have same problem. Maybe did not download correct codec. Do not recall having such problem with earlier versions of WMP

VIDEO 1
Frame per sec 29
Total bitrate (kbps) 960
Frame height 1080
Frame width 1920

VIDEO 2
Frame per sec 59
Total bitrate (kbps) 1333
Frame height 720
Frame width 1280

VIDEO 3
Frame per sec 25
Total bitrate (kbps) 1570
Frame height 720
Frame width 1280

VIDEO 4
Frame per sec 24
Total bitrate (kbps) 1407
Frame height 640
Frame width 1280

VIDEO 5
Frame per sec 29
Total bitrate (kbps) 1179
Frame height 720
Frame width 1280


Would appreciate and help/advice from forummers here
