Hey all, first time posting on these forums, but have been trying to find an answer to a problem I have been having for some time now.
About a month ago now, I turned on my computer and poped in a DVD. Everything went fine and it opened in Winamp. But all I got was that audio. No video would show up. So I thought it was just a problem with the disc, as the day before everything worked fine.
So I put in another disc, no video. Used a different player, no video.
So I thought there was something wrong with my DVD drive and tried playing a file I had on my computer. Still only Audio. I have tried Windows media player, Winamp, BS player, Power DVD... Everything.
So I though, ok, what the hell?
Well, I was using iTunes and a video I downloaded from iTunes came up on my playlist and worked fine, video and all, through iTunes.
Now I was really confused. So I tried using Quicktime just to see if it worked to play videos, and alas, it DID.
But it only plays some files. If I try to load a WMV file it wont play.
SO, after all of that I just want to know if anyone knows what this is all about, and if its something I can fix? I have tried downloading every codec I can find to make this work again, but still nothing. Any ideas?
