If the video looks all messed up or is completely black, and the file contains MPEG-2 video, and also the Chroma subsampling has value 4:2:2, then you should use a different MPEG-2 decoder. By default Microsoft's own MPEG-1 decoder is used. If the file contains MPEG-1 video, then try enabling MPEG-1 in LAV video decoder or ffdshow. Use the MediaInfo tool to get details about the file. I have trouble playing certain MPEG files It is likely to contain a virus or other malware. If the file shows you a video message about a missing codec that you need to download, then you got a fake file. The MediaInfo tool can tell you what kind of video format the file contains. If the problem only occurs with some AVI files, then the file is damaged/incomplete/fake or you are missing a codec. Or manually from an administrator command prompt with this command:
If you are not able to play any AVI files at all, then the AVI source filter of Windows is probably broken.Ĭodec Tweak Tool -> Fixes -> Re-register base DirectShow filters Re-enable UAC and then re-install the codec pack. Disabling UAC can often cause weird problems. If the above does not help, then the problem might be related to the User Account Control (UAC) functionality of Windows Vista/7/8. Detect and remove broken DirectShow filters.Detect and remove broken ACM/VFW codecs.I am unable to play any files on Windows Vista even though I have all the proper codecs installedįirst use the Codec Tweak Tool to check for any possible problems. It should be able to play almost anything. This player doesn't use DirectShow filters to play files, but it's own plugins.
If all fails, then try the VideoLAN player.
For two reasons:ġ) It is better able to play certain files than other players.
