I have Windows Media Player 10 and can play all the files except for .avi
files. Whenever I try to play the files I don't get a picture I just get the
sound. I looked up the problem on the microsoft.com site and it says to do
this
I never see video
If you're playing an AVI file, it's possible that the video codec required
to decode and display the video is not installed on your computer. To
determine which codec was used to create the file, do the following:
1.Use a codec detection utility to determine the FourCC code of the file.
2.Look up that FourCC code on the FourCC for Video Compression Web page or
in the codecs section of the FourCC Web site.
After you determine which codec is required, you can then download the
correct codec from the Internet. The Windows Media Player Multimedia File
Formats Web page provides links to suppliers of some of the more frequently
used video codecs for AVI files. However, keep in mind that some codecs can
introduce instability with programs or your computer in general, so make sure
that a codec is from a trustworthy source before downloading and installing
it.
when I installed the codec detection utility to determine the FourCC code of
the file, I was lost can somebody please help me out, I am completely lost.
I forgot to mention that I did # 1 but I don't get what do I look up to
determine thte FourCC of the file, like what do I look for?
