Hello

I have Jungle Book cartoon movie which is in .avi format on my hard disk.

But I can't play it in Windows Media Player 10.0. The message says one or more codecs cannot be found. Nor can i play it in PowerDVD Pro 6.0. I have installed K-Lite Codec pack but don't know how to use it.

How do I burn this movie onto DVD ( +R or +RW ) using Nero 6 Ultra Edition to be played on home dvd player ? Do I need to convert the file type from .avi into some other file types. If so how can I convert it ?

Thank you.

Regards
hdoshi

I am guessing the movie is in Divx or Xvid format with mp3 audio.

Are you sure you got the latest version K-Lite Codec Pack 2.34 Full

If not be sure to uninstall the old version first.

i got a nightmare on elm street 3 saved to my hard drive and i every i download wont play it, wen on media 10 it say,
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.

wot should i do?:stars:
