Something on the medium windows player give me sound but no picture? __

So I want to burn a movie, but when I try to play on the media player it will give me sounds still no picture. It will however give me weird lines that change color. If I burn this movie I will have an image as the film or a black screen? I really don't want to lose a drive to know if I'm wrong. If so, what can I do to make this work? I don't know how to use a converter or anything, so if I need one of these I will certainly need help. But what do I do?

Hello TenaciousTay,

Check the automatic FixIT for CD/DVD players. It can correct most of burns and CD issues.

    Sims 2 was not properly installing its codec vp6vfw.dll film so I copy and pasted from Sims 1 CD in my windows > System 32.  Now when I play the Sims 2 game I can make movies.  They appear in Windows Media Player very well.  But they do not visually show in Windows Movie Maker.  I get sound.  How can I fix Windows Movie Maker to display my Sims 2 movies?

    I found the answer.  Windows Movie Maker is no longer supported.  The new version is Windows Live Movie Maker, and it has all the appropriate codecs.  Download that and you're good!

  • How do I as a track in the mini window player?

    I'll listen to Apple music on my desktop as I do other things.  Because I don't want to take place of the screen, I put iTunes mini Player window mode.  However, when I do this, the 'heart' icon is not present.  For love or 'heart' a song I have to get back to the great window, click on the emblem of the 'heart' and then switch to mini player mode.  Is there anyway to make the icon 'heart' appear in the mini Player window?

    I generally do not use the mini player - just minimize iTunes in the dock - but I don't see anyway 'like' songs without going back to the main screen of iTunes.

  • the Player Windows media 7 sound but no picture just stopped working

    Windows 7 media player on my pc hp laptop pavilion dv7 plays sound just no picture, I downloaded vlc player is the same can help you please

    You may have to reinstall the OS by doing a restore. The problem could be due to a corruption of a codec registry key in the registry.  You can also try to do a restore of the system for some older dsates and check if this solves the problem. You can also lose some files and applications that you installed after the date chosen for the restoration of the system. It is always better to lose some files rather than ending up losing the receipt of data on the hard drive.

  • I need to open the web site even in two separate tabs. Since I've upgraded to Firefox 6 when I try to open the web page in a new tab in the list in the drop down in the address window it gives that the opportunity to move to the already open tab.

    When I get off the fall from the address window, rather than display the URL of the Web site I want to open in a second tab says "switch to the tab '. But I don't want to move to the tab - I want to open a second tab on the same URL. If I want to open it a second time, I have to manually enter the address. Is it possible to turn off this option so that I can open the second tab by using the same address in the drop-down menu? I was always able to do this with the previous versions of Firefox.

    "Is it possible to turn off this option so that I can open the second tab by using the same address in the drop-down menu?

  • Outlook express,-when I delete something in the Inbox, it won't go away, but a copy appears in the trash

    When you delete a box in question it will not disappear, but a copy goes to the trash, what's the problem?

    You have corruption of dbx files.

    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox (if you can) and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Compact all folders as described below.

    To avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • All embedded videos in articles of the internet and YouTube play sound but no picture

    My problem started about 2 weeks ago. Before that, I could directly play any video on Youtube or any video embedded in a Web download.
    Now video games, in the sense that I have sound and the time elapsed bar moves along the bottom of the screen, but there is no video, just a complete green screen. This applies to any video on Youtube or incorporated into an internet download.
    I can still play any video I already downloaded on my PC, that this Flash Video or MP4 file.
    The latest versions of Windows Media Player, VLC Media Player, Media Player Classic and Adobe Flash Player players installed on my PC.
    The problem started at the same time there was a major update to my program free antivirus Avast (to the 8.0.1482 version), but it is probably a red herring, as I struggle to believe this might have something to do with the problem.
    I also tried on Internet Explorer and the problem is all the same, it is not specific to Firefox.
    Can anyone offer a solution?
    Kind regards
