sound but no video

[Jerigorn]

today i tried to load some internet videos. some asked for a plugin. whenever i clicked on the blank screen with the green puzzle piece to let my comp search for the appropriate files to download to play the videos, my comp said it couldnt find the necessary files and gave an option of a manual install. media player and quicktime wont play the videos, however, youtube.com and google video will work. any suggestions?

Install K-Lite codec, should give you all..well not all but a lot of codecs so you could watch almost any video.
