"For those who were busy fighting the aliens while Google Talk added the cool feature to display your currently playing music track in the Google status, please be aware that you can simply do so just by changing the status to “Show current music track”.Continue reading: Music track not showing up in Google Talk status?

Now, it so happened that I eagerly tried the feature when it was launched, but Gtalk did not show the status with Windows Media Player 10, 11 or Winamp on my laptop.

On further research I discovered that Google Talk installs a plug-in in Windows Media Player which sends the current music track to Gtalk. Now if, for any reason, WMP detects some problem with a plug-in, it disables it. This was the problem in my case. So here is what I did to enable my Google Talk plug-in..."

My name is Deniz Akay and I live in
I have d/loaded some music tracks from youtube. G/Talk do not show these music tracks as status message...What shold i do to show those videos?
Ankita they must in .vlc format...it won't be displayed as plugin does not support this
it shows when i play songs in Itunes..
well this problem normaly arrises with windows vista because we normally open the setup to install gtalk & by simply clicking on it opens the setup in user mode so gtalk plugins are installed on the private location where your windows media player gets unable to access it.
so in order to get rid of this problem:
uninstall the gtalk >> reinstall gtalk by right clicking on it & selecting the option "RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR" >> follow the simple step &&&& u are golden..
Yes, I found the setting to enable and disable this feature in Windows Media Player. So if your Google Talk is not showing the currently playing music track do the following :
- Open Windows Media Player
- Click on Tools and Options.
- Go to plug-ins tab.
- Under categories select Background and under Background check the option “Google Talk music plug-in”
- Click on Apply and Ok.
thanks for the post xD..
thnx....that works....:)
