Some AVI will not play its media player.

I have a HP laptop is a few years old but holding well. My problem is that I just got a few copies of some movies that will not play sounds. I played the same copies with NERO and it works fine but my trial has expired. Another AVI works very well. I also notice that those who don't play not his seems to take more time to open and on the bottom it acquires Codec. I don't know if it's important but I have problems with who is on an external hard drive. Looks like a software issue, but I don't know how to do the update. Thanks for any help you can give.

==================================
It is possible to check in on an external hard
drive could slow down the launch of videos.

As an experiment... it may be worth trying to copy a
video files to your hard drive and see hand if
There is an improvement.

As for the sound issue... it may be worth trying to install
an AC3 Filter:

(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)

AC3Filter downloads
http://AC3Filter.NET/projects/AC3Filter/releases
(try - AC3Filter 1.63 b Lite)

If the AVI files in question are the Xvid files...
the following codec may be worth a try.

  • Why some DVDs will not play in my computer DVD player?

    I have a small collection of commercial DVD movies.  Most of them come from the place of the U.S. market, and some come from Asia... He play ALL these DVD in my Phillips DVD player that is connected to my TV.

    But only some of these DVD will play in my DVD player which is in my computer Dell Inspiron 531 with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  This computer has a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive.

    Some of the DVDs that will play on my computer are the American market, and some of them are of the Asian market, so I don't think that this has nothing to do with why some of these DVDs will not play on my computer.

    DVDs that play fine in my Phillips DVD on my TV player that will not play on my computer don't yet seem to close at play on my computer.  The DVD that will play on my computer liquidation (you can hear the noise) in the DVD player in 20 seconds and they start playing automatically in Windows Media Player... but I welcomed all others who won't have to sit in the DVD player for several minutes each in my tests and nothing happens... There is no wind sound and all nothing is happening on the computer screen.

    This doesn't seem to be a problem with the driver software for the disk hard because some of the DVDs will play.

    None of these DVDs are buckled and all of them are clean.

    I tried two or three times test each of DVDs that won't play, the removed from drive and put them back in.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Hi Dale,

    Although I never had no problem with the DVD or the CD I burned on PC, I think you're going to probably the same thing, that I've been with this internal DVD/CD player, is not a software problem, but just the characteristics of a lower quality DVD/CD player, and it isn't necessarily the symptoms of a dying man in car , but just a stock car low quality that some computer manufacturers cut corners with.
    The drive in the computer that I was referring in this thread is a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive. Which may or may not be identical or similar to the reader, you have problems with, but the computer on which the reader is underway is a Dell Inspiron 531.
    Through the information that I've gathered on this thread and on another forum, I came to the conclusion that it's just a cheap player who gives intermittent performance recognizing various DVD, but as I said, the drive I troubleshooting always recognize DVDs and CDs that I burned in it... It was just the DVD movie that I have problems with.
    I dug my loyal reader DVD LaCie and plugged and I had no problems with him acknowledging and play ONE of my DVDs on this machine, which proves that the problem has nothing to do with the software system or DVD player software, as in the case suggested by someone else on this thread.
    Just buy yourself a Firewire drive or USB-2 DVD decent and you're probably fine.

  • Cisco Media Player will not play my media after Windows 7 upgrade

    Last week I upgraded my operating system to Windows Vista Ultimate 64 to Windows 7 Professional.  I own a player DMP-100 which is directly plugged in my G from Linksys WRT54GS wireless router.  My computer is also connected to the router, so this problem is not a wireless issue, but it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out be associated with a.  When Vista was in charge, the DMP-100 router and Cisco Media Player is fine, although I had a devil of a time in the set up.  When I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, I realized because the BONES were inconsistent that the upgrade would eliminate all applications and I have to reload everything.

    When I rebooted Lela and the Cisco Media Player, I have none of the problems that I had with Vista in the configuration.  However for some reason, the program does not play my media files.  There is a default error message coming saying the Cisco Media Server can be turned off.  This is not the case.  More when I select a streaming radio station, the player, the server and software work fine.  I feel, but the server isn't really pointing to my library, the library opens upward in the software.  I unplugged and reset the player several times.  I also deleted and reloaded the server & software media a number of times.  I always get the same results.

    I don't like on radio stations.  I just want to be able to play my music and playlists. Anyone facing this problem before, and if so, is there a reason and a solution for this?

    (Mod Note: edited post for the respect of the directive.) (Thank you!)

    Eureka!  It's the firewall after all.  I thought I had everything checked when I added the AV Media Server and made sure the Cisco Media Player has been activated too.  Once I disabled the firewall and restarted, the press began to play as it should.  If something was definitely not right in the firewall.  It turns out that I was a fool and never saw the 'advanced settings' until I read about it in WIndows help (something I should have done at the beginning).  It was like a slap in the face.  Even if the programs were activated, there is no rule created for TCP and 8015 remote port.  It was clear as soon as I knew where to look.  I created a new outbound rule to allow TCP access port 8015, and the program worked as if it was never a problem.

    I want to thank you two people who have helped me through this and patience you while I flinched around this application and operating system.  It was a total exercise in frustration, but also that of the discovery.  I really appreciate your help.  I thank you and my audio system thanks you too!

  • Capture DV AVI will not play in WMP or VLC

    I'm having a problem where the video I captured with first CS 5.5 will not play in VLC or WMP 12. More weird is that the video I captured with first of the 4 CS will play in VLC and WMP 12. It is not captured AVI DV HDV video. Here is a chronology of the events that took place:

    1 Ran CS 4 Production Premium on Vista Enterprise 32-bit

    2 rebooted my computer with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

    3 reloaded CS 4 Production Premium and has no capture video up to 4 # below

    4. a few weeks later received CS Production Premium 5.5

    5 load CS Production Premium 5.5 (installation not complete an upgrade) alongside the existing CS 4 installation.

    Once I had CS installed 5.5, I captured 2 videos and then tried to play them in WMP. They play for two seconds and then WMP up an error it can not play the video. I tried VLC and DiVX Plus Player and no dice. DiVX player says I need ' codecs additional live show "installed, but does nothing else.

    I kept thinking there is a problem with my Windows 7 or WMP on the first but old footage of CS 4 plays well in all three aforementioned players. Any thoughts?

    OK, I get the same result, as you do, in WMP12. Any other request or player I've tried (including Premiere Pro) played the file without problem. WMP12 would play until the last second or two and then give the same error message.

    At this point, I am inclined to believe that it is not so much the container or the header in the file causing problem, but the encoded video itself. I noticed that the video has had much bursting inside - he goes all Lego Land to pieces. Which could cause the decoder to freak - any other DV AVI I throw in WMP12 very good times. Are all the videos that present this problem like this?

    As an experiment, what happens if you create a sequence of DV, drop an effect on the clip (which will force a rendering) and export to a DV AVI? It plays back in WMP12 then?

    EDIT: I will answer my own question: the exported clip works very well in WMP12. This means that something affects the capture of the original images, or the tape itself is soiled upward and leading to strange results. The reason that does not even the right clip exported the initial capture is because the body will not be re - encode a DV film, unless it takes, and if you do not use an effect, it does not. It simply crosses the DV hardware in a new container file. When you put an effect on the clip, the original film must be recompressed, and that the rights of the ship, so to speak. The DV stream is encoded again, and now you have a standard/playable DV stream.

  • Produced by PP media export AVi will not play the video portion on my Windows Media Player, why?

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community forums.

    I understand that you are not able to play a Webinar on the windows computer using Windows Media Player 8.

    I would be grateful if you can provide us with the following information to help us better understand the issue.

    1 you get an error code or the name of the codec to install?

    2. are you able to play other files with Windows media player?

    3. What are the file format of the multimedia files that you are not able to play using Windows media player?

    4. are you referring to the video file saved using Webinar?

    This problem is caused if the file format is not supported by windows media player.

    Codec compresses or decompresses media files. Windows media player uses codecs to play and create media files.

    See the link below for the types of files supported by windows media player.

  • Windows media player will not play download i-player with mp4 suffix bbc

    I downloaded a program from the bbc I have-Reader so that I was in England. The progamme is indicated as being downloaded on bbc I = site of player with an expiration date in the future.  the file is displayed in my library under my videos as p01fcz2k_b039ftbm_1377518019380.mp4.

    How to play? I'm no longer in the United Kingdom.

    You can try the following solutions:

    1. try to rename the file to a maximum of 8 characters and check.
    2. try playing the file with any other media players like VLC. Because Windows Media Player does not have the maximum number of codecs. The question can also be with the file/codec.
  • Some Albums will not play

    I just bought a refurb C250 v2 with the new firmware. I loaded albums on which have been torn by using WMP. Most of them works very well, while all of them are listed, some just flip through all the names of the song without playing them and then temporarily freezes. Hit the menu button allows you to return and other albums play very well. When it is connected to the computer I can click on the songs of 'bad' and that they will play via the media player very well. I reformatted and reloaded with no luck. In Solution Explorer, I noticed that some album C250 files contained a desktop (config?) file where others do not, but that doesn't seem to be an exclusive problem - some albums without this file played fine. Also the sampling rate in albums that wouldn't play all seemed to be 64 k while the rest were 128 k. I deleted and reripped album busy at 128 k, but it did not help. I don't know what else to try.

    I recommend to use software for ripping quality rather than WMP or other applications 'DRM-flawed. " Exact Audio Copy is sorta the standard for those who know the BLADE is one of the best free encoders out there (and it is fully integrable with ABC); Make sure you that Setup you your freedb access too, so ABC can automatically ID3 information for you - fill low quality rips (for any reason, be it real bad sound definition, too aggressive compression, bad/missing meta-info or other) are for losers.

  • Synchronization results pane will not 'clear' in Media Player 11

    The first time I have connected my Walkman mp3 player to Windows media player 11, the default setting means that media player started to synchronize the content of my library to your walkman.  I stopped it and the parameters are now on the manual synchronization, but will not erase the results of synchronization pane.  If I want to synchronize a single album, the synchronization process will try and carry on the synchronization of all the contents of the library even if the boxes are not checked.  How can I clear the results of the synchronization pane please, so I just sync what I sync? Thank you

    Hello kippaxblue,

    To transfer the song or album on your MP3 player, you must set the timing to the manual setting.

    If you have already set the manual synchronization parameter and I want to erase the list of synchronization so that you can add new albums or tracks, here's what you need to do:

    1. open Windows Media Player (the program should already be open if the sync list is complete, although).

    2. click on the "Sync" button at the top of the program. The sync list is displayed on the right side of Windows Media Player.

    3. click on the "Sync list" option in the upper left corner of the sync list. Options of down.

    4. Select 'Clear list'. The Windows Media Player sync list and then fade.
