How Do I play AVI files in Windows Media Player???

#379626 - Sat Jan 12 2008 06:54 PM

Hi guys, I am trying to play some video files which are in AVI format, but all it does on Windows Media Player is play the audio without any pictures. I have also tried to play these on various other players including Quicktime etc to no avail.

I was wondering if there was any safe download programme that I could download to allow me to view these AVI files in WMP or Quicktime???

Any help or advice would be appreciated,

Thanks in advance,

Jak.

Hi, Not sure how to do it in WMP, but nero showtime plays near enough anything. I'm sure there would be a copy floating about
somewhere on the web

Your missing a codec that's all, download and install the K-Lite Codec Pack and this should resolve your issue.

MugsMoney FYI; we don't condone software that floats about on the web on this site!
