Thank you
Pranav

How can I get the Basic for Windows Media Player codec pack?
original title: green screen recently started in windows media player for Vista 64-bit.
It works very well for some videos (like those recorded uncompressed, or some codecs) but a single codec that I save it as coming out of Sony Vegas (Windows Media video V11) goes green screen with playback of the sound. How can I get the basic for 64-bit Windows Media Player codec pack? It worked perfectly for several years now on this machine. Suddenly, it does not work. Last time that I used it very well if a few months ago.
Hi, MisterMark67,
What changes have been made recently to the computer?
Have you tried a system restore to a time before this problem?
Here are answers to some common questions about codecs.

How can I adjust the brightness and contrast of an object that is part of a vector?
I have edited one (text & symbols of color, brightness, contrast, etc.) file, generated from its original file, LOGO.eps LOGO.tif, . Now, I am trying to edit the EPS to match the TIFF. I got regarding the extraction of the color of the text in the TIFF file and applying it to the text in the EPS file. My problem is that I can not change the brightness and contrast of the symbol in the logo. Is it possible to adjust the brightness and contrast of an object that is part of a vector? I need make a darker symbol and I tried change > change colors > saturate and adjusting the intensity to 100, but it does not darken. And I can't really spend extra money on plug-ins like Phantasm cs. Help, please.
I may be as simple as adding a transparent overlay with some gradients.
It can be incredibly complex and be better done in photoshop.
without seeing it, it is very difficult to help more.
even a clipped sample can help.
Choose the logo...
