| 490461 | 2006-10-10 02:45:00 | Through trying out different video encoding software, I've ended up with some broken codecs and can't find how to remove them. Anyone know a good way to do this? I think the offending program was Super (C) which I know a lot of people use. I've had a quick look on google and free-codecs but can't find a solution. Got a good old screenshot of the list of ones I want to get rid of. Attached file: fix_broken_codecs.gif (www.imagef1.net.nz) (10 KB) |

| 490463 | 2006-10-10 22:12:00 | Sorry, didn't mention I'm on WinXP (Pro SP2), looks like thats for Win95-WinME and I couldn't follow the directions 'roughly' in XP :/ | sal (67) | ||
| 490464 | 2006-10-10 22:23:00 | Are you, by any chance, having trouble using windows moviemaker?. Is this why your getting the codec error. Why i mention it is because when i first started doing video editing i used moviemaker then after installing other editing programs such as ulead i could never use moviemaker again. I was getting a codec error. No great loss as ulead and premiere are alot more powerfull. |

| 490465 | 2007-01-16 23:10:00 | Hey Sal, did you manage to fix the problem?. I've started having a problem too. I cant connect any camera to my computer. I get an error "Creation of the video preview failed". I'm wondering if you had the same problem and did you fix it. If anyone else can help i would be much appreciated. |

This (support.microsoft.com) may fix it. It wont be a codec prob. |

| 490467 | 2007-01-16 23:46:00 | I saw that when i had a search for a fix but restarting my computer or the computer doesn't fix the problem. It happens when i plug in either my usb webcam or my digital video camera using the firewire. I get the same error on both. | lazydog (148) | ||

I would also agree with the other programs mentioned. |

It happens when i plug in either my usb webcam or my digital video camera using the firewire . I get the same error on both . Hmm might be a driver prob, reinstalling the webcam drivers may fix it, but the firewire drivers would be part of XP . So, not sure how you would fix the DVC . You're not running an IM program at the same time (when you're trying to view it in my computer are you)? |

| 490470 | 2007-01-17 00:20:00 | Nope, not using a messenger program at the same time. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the firewire card. Still not working. I think it maybe time for a clean install. |
