grumpyteapot · Answer

You need to gey a AVI converter or codec. Windows media donst have a codec for AVI's. The best ive tried is Media Clasic Player

I had the same problem and had tried everything.  All it took was a simple download of DiVX and I'm fixed.  I can watch movies to my hearts content, and it keeps the children quiet.  Thank you very much for your assistance.

I found that if you are trying to play an mp4 file Windows Media Player it will not play some formats and it would play movies with no sound(mp4)

I found to answers to 2 problems I had. I am using XP and IE 6.

For the sound I would try www.videolan.org a free program.  I could not see vidoes on the net like fancast etc.

Down load a free full version of KLite -codec. It has many codec that video and audio need to play.

Try it.

Well, it didn't work for me. I cannot see any video when opening a stand-alone video file in any media program, Real Player, WMP, Quik Time, NOTHING. Frustrating as hell. Running XP

buixrule · Answer

I looked for this setting in all of my media players and couldn't find this setting anywhere. Even a "help" search on the word "interlace" pulled up nothing.

Extract The File(Video) To The Divx Movie Folder And Go to the Folder And Play the Movie From There. 
It Should Play on WMP. It Worked For Me And I hope It Works for you guys. Oh Yeah Download Divx If you Dont Got it.

Okay, def NOT PC savvy, but Windows XP + Windows Movie Maker + DivX and I still can't see any sort of visual. What am I missing? Probably a new PC, haha, but a little help, please!

install vlc mediyaplayer

Carbon · Answer

Open the link or file in Gom player - you will see the same issue (no display). Now simultaneously play the link or file in windows media player or VLC, it will play in both.

Strange that Gom player fails to play the file, however its codecs help WMP and VLC to play.
Also note that if we select Gom player to use its internal codecs for ASF files, the files wont play. The default settings of selecting the codecs automatically works.

Hope someone more techie can crack this and give us a solution.
