I can't play the videos that play in wmv.

I can't play the videos that play in wmv, I get the error message 80040154. This is the codec that is false and if this what you do need me and how to get it and load it?

Hello

·         Were you able to play WMV files earlier, if yes, then you remember recent changes to the computer?

·         What is the accurate and complete error message?

·         Are you able to play other files?

I suggest you to rebuild the Windows media player library and check if the problem follow these steps:

a. exit Windows Media Player.

b. click Start, click Run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Playerand then click OK.

c. Select all files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.

Note: you don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.

d. restart Windows Media Player.

Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

    ·         What program did you use for recording to WMV file?

    ·         Are you having similar problem when you try to import the WMV file, which is not recorded by this program?

    Method 1:

    Although you can play a file in Microsoft Windows Media Player, you may not be able to import the file into Windows Movie Maker even though this article lists this kind of file. You will not be able to import the file if the codec that was used to encode the audio or video is not a codec that is supplied with Windows. In this case, you can re - encode the video or audio by using Windows Media Encoder, and then import the video or audio.

    To download the Windows Media Encoder, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=8509

    Hi amireos,

    Yes, you can create your workflow where you can keep all your images on the external hard drive and the Lightroom catalog file as well.

    If you start with Lightroom and then use the Destination location as external hard drive when you import your image of the external source such as a camera or SD.

    If you already have your Images on the Mac HD drive, then play all your Image on the external hard drive first and then import images directly from there.

    Finally, you can change the location of the Lightroom Catalog as well.

    Default location: folder on the Mac Drive HD, there is folder called Lightroom that you can move on the external drive too (however catalog Lightroom can't memory space as its only import previews of the images is not the real image and full)

    Once you move the file catalog Lightroom external hard disk, then you need to browse the catalog file when you launch Lightroom only once.

    See thread: LR catalog moving on external hard drive

    Let us know if it helps.

    Kind regards

  • How can I change the video display Mode when the monitor mode not supported?

    While creating my new monitor, I changed the computer video display mode at 120 Hz by accident.  Now I see something on the monitor other than the words not taken in CHARGE the MODE.

    My system is a new HP Pavilion p7-1423W running Windows 8.1 with Intel i5-2320 3 ghz

    I tried the start mode by pressing ESC on power but do not help the startup options.  And the just F11 menu option makes the startup screen disapear and puts the monitor mode not supported.  Tapping F8 doen't work and tapping F12 just puts me in the bios menus that do not help.

    How can I upgrade the video card integrated with a video mode that is supported when I can't see the screen?

    I answer my own question because I found my solution, thanks to my grandson (freshman to Renselear Politech).

    I shoot to buy a monitor that displays a refresh rate of 120, so I could put my rear view.

    Here is the solution.

    My computer double exit DVI.  My grandson told me to connect my new monitor to the other output because the output does not get touched when I changed the original mode of production.  He has worked and is automatically selects the default monitors mode.  Then I've reconfigured the original output using the integrated display software. Solved!

    ==================================
    I'm guessing your videos from the Nikon are in the
    . MOV format?

    Two ways to see. MOV files are as follows:

    (1) since then. MOV is the Apple QuickTime format... it can
    be worth trying to use the Apple QuickTime Player.

    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Also... at the following freeware Media Player can be
    worth a try:

    (start with left click - Download (direct link)

    (2) convert the. MOV files to a different format
    may be worth a try... WMV would be a good choice.

    There are to many converters available on the net...
    some retailers and some freeware. What follows
