Beyond the features provided by Zoom Player Professional, , Zoom Player WMV Professional allows you to play Windows Media Video Digital Rights Management files.


The first thing you should do is install this Microsoft Patch if you are using an operating system older than Windows XP Service Pack 2.

Next make sure you have DirectX v9 or newer installed on your machine. You can download the latest version of DirectX from Microsoft.

You also need a display card and drivers that support VMR9 Video Rendering. Both ATI and NVIDIA have drivers that support VMR9. You will further need to Configure Zoom Player Windows Media settings within the "Windows Media" tab under "Advanced Options / Settings".

Finally, you must authenticate the disc/file you are trying to play in order to obtain a playing license. With WM-DVD discs, usually inserting the disc accomplishes that. For WMV DRM media files, you may need to first try playing them with Windows Media Player 9
