Cant Play Avi File, Dont Know Which Codec

[bboygecko182]

Can someone help?

I've downloaded Rodney Mullen - skate in london from eMule and it doesn't play, its an AVI file, about 700 megs, I've downloaded all the codec packs from the this site and some off from kazaa and it still doesnt work.

On windows its says Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The file is either corrupt or the Player does not support the format you are trying to play.

and on real player it says Cannot play back the file. The format is not supported.

I've downloaded it twice so it cant be corrupted? Can anyone help with what codec I need, thanx.

:helpsmile:

Best thing is to install only 1 codec pack.


With the GSpot tool that is included in the K-Lite Codec pack you can see which codecs are required for that file.
You can also let GSpot try to render the file and see which codecs/filters are used. One of them is probably causing a conflict.

you could also try using vlc (video lan player). get if from kazaa by searching for vlc player.
