Thank you Rick,
The only problem is that WMP returns no error message anymore, when I click
on the webcam link. I cannot remember the error code which I got the first
time. I will install the codecs first and hope that one of them works. I
already installed FDD show, someone said it will play anything, but it did
not work for the ASX format.

| Hi Mike,
|
| These are the most popular codes that most users seem to be missing (as
they
| are not included with Windows):
|
| Divx:

| Xvid:

|
| In WMP8, you need to run a fairly complicated procedure to detect the name
| of the missing codec, in WMP9 the error message will tell you which one.
| Just try installing both of them first.
