Page 1 of Codec problems, apparently i havent got the right one.

Wonder if anyone can help me, i downloaded an AVI file last night and can only play the audio and not the video. this happened to me a couple of months back and i had to get MP43 codec which sorted the problem out. Obviously it cant be the same problem im having now because im still using the mp43. I know this file actually works coz my mates have it.

Does anyone have any idea hoe i can sort this out.

Thanx in advance

Try downloading the nimo codec pack from here:

i had the same problem i downloaded the lateset version of windows media player and this enabled the video to be viewed it gives you the web site when it informs you it wont play what you have downloaded

I had same problem to, tried the above but they didn`t work, I got around it by using the DivX codec, you download the codec and player from http://www.downloads.com you get the codec and a DivX player but I find the audio runs a little out of sync so use Media Player, which automatically selects the DivX codec then picture and audio are perfect.

Cant go wrong here ... hope this helps
