| 856129 | 2010-02-07 08:28:00 | VLC or media player classic home cinema. i use both of those | GameJunkie (72) | ||
| 856130 | 2010-02-07 08:30:00 | As above, also Win7 "finally" has most of the DivX and Xvid codecs built into Media Player. | Battleneter2 (9361) | ||
| 856131 | 2010-02-07 09:56:00 | I've installed Media Player Classic - still no go? My xp pro is fully up to date with sp3 & windows updates. I don't have a problem on this PC running .avi's - it's configured similarly. What now? |

| 856132 | 2010-02-07 10:18:00 | try VLC player www.videolan.org or M Player for Windows www.mplayerhq.hu Or install ffdshow tryouts which should let Windows Media Player play it http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/ one of them should work..... What type of video camera did your brother use? |

| 856134 | 2010-02-07 18:02:00 | If they won't play the first part is finding out which codec they use. When you determine this, you can then find out what to play them with. Download this: www.headbands.com and load one of the files with it. Tell it to render and it will tell you which codec you would need. Then you just find an installer for that decoder, or install a player that already has support for the file. But VLC player should just work. |
