Hi!
Could some1 help me wit this? I have a problem playing certain avi files... some files work, others don't. I use the latest version of Windows Media Player (7.1) and I even downloaded the DivX codec and installed it. Yet some avi files don't work. When I try opening them, the messages WMP show are "Sending request for codec..." and then it shows "Waiting" and then the file starts playing without the video and only plays the audio track. Even though it says that it's sending a request for a particular codec, it doesn't seem to download any codec and immediately starts playing the audio track of the avi file without the video. What codec is it that I need for this problem and where can I get it from? And how? I have tried everything but nothing seems to have worked. If you know what I can/should do, please reply asap! Thank you very much!
