  • Cannot set the default value to all files video VLC media player.

    Windows media player and others fail microsoft products support the vlc media player file extension ".mkv" plays however each video I ever want to watch and I have NEVER downloaded a codec package. It is a FAR superior program and way easier to use.  the question I have is that when I try to set it on the media player by default it will not accept as a program.  I can browse programs open my .mkv film, find vlc and click on it to use it to open my file and nothing happens. the only way I am able to make this film to play is to open vlc media player and select media play in the drop-down menu inside the vlc player.

  • After the last windows patchday closing all by showing the video (flash/media player /...)

    Hello

    After the last patchday (last week) I can't watch videos. If I watch a flash video or a video with Windows Media Player, after a short period (1 to 5 min) Windows shuts itself. When I start Windows again, it does not open a crash report.
    I reinstalled my video card drivers and - because I thought installation may be broken - Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 and 2008 (redistr.).

    But nothing helped.

    Sometimes I can watch Flash videos all night and then all of a sudden Windows stops.

    Temperature is ok, coolers all run.

    Try a few game demos, they run well.

    I hope someone can help.

    Thank you very much!

    not a good idea.

    There is no problem with the video so I think
