Hello, I recently formatted my computer and reinstalled windows xp, I did save some movie files also, but I cant play them because windows media player cannot get the right codecs, The sound plays ok, but I cant get any image.
I am running Windows Media Player 10, and I have been onto the microsoft website and downloaded their codec packages. but it just doesnt have the right ones
when I try to play these movie files it says at the bottom of Windows media player:
"connecting"
"connecting to codec server"
"sending request for codec"
"connecting to codec server"
"sending request for codec"
"error downloading codec"
How do I find out what Codec I need for the movie files.
Where do I get them from?
And where do I put them?
Any help would be much appreciated
