Codec problem for wife's computer by Bootboy on 12-05-2005 at 03:09 AM

Hey

I'm having trouble finding a codec for my wife's computer. Basically I was trying to play the video here at http://www.makeamos.com/mable.mpeg

Anyway I can view it on my computer and it doesn't work on my wife's no sound or anything. Does anyone know where I can find the codec for this type of video? Any help or even reference to previous posts with this info would be appreciated.

Thanks!

As far as I can tell, it's a standard MPEG, nothing unusual about it. You shouldn't need to install a codec.

What are you trying to use to play it, and what error(s) are you getting?

Download GSpot. It is a codec analysis application which will tell you which codec(s) the video uses as well as if you have them installed or not.
