left channel not working in WM 10

Hi Jerry-

Not it - all other sources play out of both sides. I've opened all sorts of
things under "control panel" and looked at all the audio settings I can find.
It seems to be isolated to playback under WM 10 only. I transfered a file out
of WM 10 (that played out of one side only) to Musicmatch Jukebox, and it
played both channels fine. So it's specific to WM 10.

Thanks.

Open WMP10>click View in the toolbar>click Enhancements
Now check the Balance under Graphic Equalizer and also
under SRS WOW Effects for balance settings.

Hi Byte-

All of that was set correctly. However, for no good reason the left chanel
suddenly started working while I was looking at the enhancements/WOW/etc
settings. Didn't change anything - it just started working.

So, problem fixed, but I have no idea why. If it comes back I'll be back
here! Thanks for your help.

When you opened it, it reset to default. Happy putering :~)
