  1. What is the media player you use to play the VOB's on your computer?

  2. What is the operating system installed on your computer?

  3. what version of Media Player you have?

  4. What is the error you get when you try to play the vob files?

  The file format may not be supported by the Media Player you use. I suggest that you download the codecs for the vob. We also indicate the version of Media Player you are using.

• 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?

• Unable to read the .avi files with Windows Media Player 11 on XP

  Original title: Media player upgrade was worse than basic
  I recently updated my Player multimedia media Player 11 and now it won't play movies from AVI file that I used to be able to play easily on the outdated version. Why is this?

  Hello

  Do you have an error message when you try to play with Media Player AVI files?

  When you try to play a file that uses a codec that is not installed on your computer, Windows Media Player attempts to download the codec from a Microsoft server. If the
  Codec is available, the Windows Media Player installed on your computer, and then bed file. However, if the codec is not available on the server (for example, because)
  the codec not created by Microsoft), Windows Media Player displays a message that your computer is missing a codec.

  In some cases, the file you want to play uses a codec that is not available or compatible with Windows Media Player. When this happens, you may be unable to use Windows Media Player to play this particular .avi file.

• Error "Unable to read your flow." for RSS valid

  I'm looking to submit a custom podcast created to Apple via Connect of Podcasts. I'm getting an error "Unable to read your flow." wave without telling me what exactly is the problem.

  Food is works well in iTunes and check completely clean in the RSS W3 validator: e https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsassaman.com%2Frss%2Fcc

  I manually added the stream iTunes (version 12.3.2.35 on Windows 10) and it worked great for awhile. Every Sunday I add another episode of the feed and it downloads in iTunes, syncing my iPhone, everything works fine.

  Headers of the response of the application of wire - rss look good, correct content type and encoding. Food is displayed correctly in FireFox as well:

  HTTP/1.1 200 OK

  Cache-Control: private

  Content-Type: application/rss + xml; charset = utf-8

  Server: Microsoft-IIS/8.0

  X AspNetMvc-Version: 5.2

  X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319

  Date: Wednesday, February 24, 2016 02:13:22 GMT

  Content-Length: 21997

  So I can think of all possible tests the food is valid, including widely validated by Mark I eyeball that all tags are good. I'm puzzled.

  The only thing I wonder is that iTunes is somehow an analysis of enclosure and dislikes served from static links on Vimeo.com boxes? I wish there was some sort of mistake, I don't have an idea why it cannot read my podcast.

  Food seems to be OK. You have no episode 'itunes:subtitle' or 'itunes:summary' tags so your episodes show no description, but it would not have prevented the store read the stream. The episodes seem OK - the URL begins with https rather than http, but this used to be a problem it seems to be now. If they had problems with real media files episode the error message would say that they were "difficult to download episodes from your stream.

  So I don't know what the problem is. Maybe your server because the power is negative reaction to specific applications on the iTunes Store - this has been known to occur even though it is unusual - while being OK with the iTunes application and browsers. You can try to ask for the support of aid, but essentially they will only address problems at their end, not yours.

• Tecra M2: unable to read DVD or use WinDVD 4

  Recently, I replaced my Tecra M2(: MODEL NO PTM20E-0MTGR-EN, SERIAL # 54579007G) hard drive and reinstalled windows xp.

  I did most of my files on an external drive, but I don't have the original installation discs. I am now unable to read DVD or use Win DVD 4 (which came with the machine.

  Is there a file I can download to reinstall dvd playback or otherwise what method can I use to wind dvd port 4 from the external hard drive (there the dll and .exe file but no installation file)

  Thanks for your help

  If you have written about WinDVD player bundled with the laptop, in this case, the situation is as follows: WinDVD player is part of the installation image and may not be downloaded from the Toshiba download page.

  If you want to use the same application, you need to download a free version of the download from producer page or buy it as all other applications. When you buy the computer Toshiba laptop to ensure that each customer can view DVDs and install WinDVD player. If you use original recovery image, you can use it every time but if you want to use your own OS, in this case you are solely responsible for the installation of the OS and software to use.

  If you have preinstalled with success the OS I recommend using any DVD player application. Intervideo WinDVD, one do not.

  Good bye

• Qosmio G30-201 is unable to read the hd discs

  I cleaned the lens of the hd player and the discs are all clean and withought scratches. The reader will read audio CDs and regular CDs, he also wrote for the dvd and cd discs.

  When I insert a HD disc in the drive it just continues to produce a whiring sound strang and will not play.

  I played the hd movies on the laptop when I got it first, but he is unable to read it now.
  Help, please.

  Steve

  Hello

  so, if the player has played before that should always work, or? :)
  Installed a few programs that could possibly affect the playback of HD discs? It might be a good idea to recover your system, perhaps to issue it s just a software.
  Otherwise, if I were you, I´ll sent my machine to a service partner chartered for a material balance of health. (You still warranty?)
