Hi ... I hope I am in the right section , Any ways I downloaded a movie from the net, I was able to view the movie with WMP with no problems but now after a few weeks has gone by I can only hear the movie , I can not see anything , there a blank/black screen , Is there a fix for this ? I'm using xp home sp2 , I will add below some info on the movie itself and I hope someone can point me in the right direction to correct this problem , Thanks Format : AVI Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave Format/Family : RIFF File size : 701 MiB PlayTime : 1h 33mn Bit rate : 1045 Kbps Video #0 Codec : DivX 3 Low Codec/Family : MPEG-4 Codec settings/Packe : No PlayTime : 1h 33mn Bit rate : 936 Kbps Width : 640 pixels Height : 352 pixels Aspect ratio : 16/9 Frame rate : 23.976 fps Resolution : 24 bits Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.173 Audio #0 Codec : MPEG-1 Audio layer 3 Codec profile : Joint stereo PlayTime : 1h 33mn Bit rate : 96 Kbps Bit rate mode : CBR Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 44 KHz Resolution : 16 bits Writing library : Xing (very old)
well, this is a good one for me *scratches head* i would re-install my codecs for media player, maybe something for some reason became corrupt... I'm not sure here though. try the tsunami codecpack. you can google it. Hope this helps... The unknown...
Try playing the file in vlc player, if it works fine then you have a codec problem, you then uninstall your codecs and re-install them. I do not recomend codec packs. (using the same thought process) i need to burn a disk so i had better install 15 burning software suites.
