Unable to play video, lack the codec indeo 5

Indeo 5 removed from XP/Windows.

I'm trying to play videos of when my child was a baby. A few precious memories - although taken with a Webcam.

I am running Windows XP SP 3. Research on the forum here, it seems that the codec has been removed from windows. And unless I pay a company in 20 US dollars more or less, I won't get to see these videos. Sounds like inmate hostage if you ask me!
They do not seem to exist in a different media player - just what I'm looking for crashes at halfway through (DivX, Real, Nokia, Apple, Windows Media).
The company who make the codec throw fault purely at the feet of microsoft. (If this is the case, why pay for the download for the older Indeo 5?).
Any who Microsoft have access to this codec internally and brave enough to post it for download?
If not - does anyone know a media player (or converter) that contains it and is honest enough to install?

    The video was transferred to my computer using Media Player and the Canon software. I can burn to a disc, but it does not play directly from the computer, or via the computer or reader DVD (disc error). Error message when you try to replay the video is the drive Windows Media can not read the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.

  • Unable to capture video with the Canon Vixia HV40 HDV - why?

    I am unable to capture video HDV via Firewire to my Cannon Vixia HV40. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on a computer HP DV6T Quad Edition laptop, using the native Firewire interface. I can capture DV standard definition without problem (when the unit is set to DV mode, Windows detects the device and the guests of action - if you select HDV mode, Windows does not, and the camera does not appear in Device Manager).

    So far, I tried to capture HDV in Sony Vegas, Windows Live Movie Maker, Cyberlink PowerDirector 7 and finally HDVSplit (considered as the common denominator of simpler, the lowest for the capture) without success. NOTE: the camera IS recognized in HDV mode. In all the above applications, I can go back, play and fast forward - there's a link that works at least at this level. When I try to capture HDV, I get different results - no success. HDVSplit starts playback on the camera and stops after 3-4 seconds, indicating that no data has been transferred from the camera. If I turn off scene detection, capture runs indefinitely, but the generated file is never more than 0KB. Director of Windows also appears to capture, but the file is still 70 KB and is not valid. Sony Vegas, same, begins the capture but never see any video. CyberLink Power Director, somehow, HDV recorded once a band - and can always record a live camera HD stream.

    I tried a lot of things:

    1 using the older driver 1394
    2 turn HD/HDV
    3 reinstall the capture software
    4 press the 'PLAY' button first, then enable "record", then the workflow is running.
    5. install the Canon software (despite the fact that it contains all drivers for camcorders) - in fact there is no driver for the Canon Vixia HV40. It is supposed to work with the Windows 7 driver. I tried both (W7 and legacy) with the same result.

    The Canon Vixia HV40 is documented as supported in Windows 7 by Microsoft and Canon - and yet there are many people on the Internet claiming to have this problem (although some people report no problems at all). I am sure that I do not see a 'Pink Elephant'. As this is a forum for Microsoft - I would be happy if I could capture in Windows Live Movie Maker - to keep the inconsistencies of the third part of the road. What should I try next? Is there a 1394 a generic driver that is certified to run on Windows 7?

    I went and hooked the camcorder new just to make sure that I can hardly believe it is now capture HDV. Perfect work. Believe me, I've tried evey solution I could find on the internet and it is the only one that worked for me. I found the solution on this forum and started to find only no sooner. I've only used it with Pinnacle Studio 12 so far... never mind, I just tried HDV Split and it works too. I had also planned to buy a SIIG NN-EC2812-S2 and if it had been less expensive, I did not hesitate. I tried from Best Buy's Dynex Express card, but he had the camera recognition problems and sent. I thought that you get what you pay and was actually looking for the best price on the SIIG when I came across the solution. I wish you good luck.

            protected void paint(Graphics g){

            }
             };
         layoutManager.add(videoField);
         add(layoutManager);
         player.addPlayerListener(this);
             try {
              player.start();
         } catch (Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();

          }
          public void playerUpdate(Player player, String event, Object eventData) {
          System.out.println("PLAYER EVENT:::::"+event);

          }
          }
    }
    

    At the launch of this code in debug mode on Simulator 9930 I see the following output in the console:

    PLAYER EVENT:::::durationUpdated
    PLAYER EVENT:::::com.rim.seekableUpdatePLAYER EVENT:::::com.rim.playableStreams

    [ReadThread run]: net.rim.device.internal.streamingnatives.StreamingException: Unexpected erorr
    .........................
    PLAYER EVENT:::::error
    

    So, I think, that the video does not play because of the exception of Streaming. But what can cause this exception to appear?
    The same video and the code works perfectly on OS 5 and 6 simulators and devices.
    Are there other ways to play the video which is the part of the application?
    Help, please!

    Finally found the problem.
    I sailed on my VideoScreen in the screen where another active instance of the player (music player) were trying to stop. I added a small timeout until the active instance of the player is stopped before pushing my VideoScreen.
