| 565535 | 2007-07-04 00:17:00 | My partner has XP with media player 11 and when she downloads her camera to her puter the videos run for the recording time but come up blank on media player. I can download them to my linux box and they play ok |

| 565537 | 2007-07-04 01:01:00 | There are plenty of free apps out there that are much better than WMP . | winmacguy (3367) | ||
| 565538 | 2007-07-04 01:14:00 | Thanks Guys.I thought WMP was the be all end all for Windoze but it looks like this could be one of the very few times I got things wrong. | kjaada (253) | ||
| 565539 | 2007-07-04 01:17:00 | WMP would / or may need codecs for some things. That could be what the prob is with yours. |

| 565540 | 2007-07-04 01:56:00 | The result is the same in Real Player.Just a black screen and the playing scale going by. | kjaada (253) | ||
| 565541 | 2007-07-04 21:35:00 | You're missing a codec to decode the video. Did the camera come with any drivers/software? If so, you may need to install the drivers at least. What sort of file does the camera create? If .mpg, you'll probably need an mpg2 codec as WMP plays mpg1 out of the box. If .mov, you'll need a new version of Quicktime (or it's alternative) installed. If .avi, you can use GSpot (www.headbands.com) to identify which codec you may need. |
