Why are my fuzzy HD videos in Windows Media Player full-screen?
When I downloaded my videos I wanted them in HD so I used a converter to convert videos in HD. When I play in Windows Media Player, it is blurred. I played it to players like DAplayer, Divx Player, VLC Player, Freesmith Player, and Windows Media Player. I noticed that if I play the video in how it was originally without convert HD he plays well, but it depends on whether or not the video is in HD right from the start. If it wasn't in HD from the beginning, when I first downloaded the video then it will not be in HD. Why this phenomenon happens and is there a way to fix it. Also, if I play the HD video that is converted in a small screen, it plays in HD. If it is full screen it's blurry.
It depends on the resolution on the downloaded video and the native resolution of your screen. If the movies are 320 x 240 or 640 x 480 (or even smaller size), and that your monitor is 1600 x 900 or similar larger, then the full screen video will be blurred, no matter what you do. It's the same thing as taking a wallet-sized photo and blow up to 8 x 10. The pixels are stretched to the point of not be smoother.

Sound with no video in Windows Media Player or any other software I've tried.
I have no video when I play all the files on my computer no matter what program I use. I updated my driver for video card, re-installed the software. Verified that both we are up-to-date. The files are files simple .wmv and .mpg. They have worked in the past but now when I pull it up its just audio. The box of the video Viewer will be resized according to the picture, but there is no picture. I am a computer technician, and which left me speechless. Can someone help me or point me in the right direction please!
Looks like you have corrupted codecs on your computer. You may need to reinstall or re-register the codecs so Windows to recognize them again. Here is a longer version of this explanation on what to do if you have the sound but no video in Windows Media Player.

I plugged a LCD TV to my laptop using a VGA cable. LCD TV display the full desktop.
When I play a video in Windows Media Player video area is not displayed on the LCD screen, the rest all is shown.
When I ran the player VLC video did not show, but when I changed the video option "overlay video output" i.e disabled this option, the video was shown on the LCD.
But there is no option in WMP. How in WMP?
What is the problem?
Maryse Agarwal
not a driver problem
found the solution, I used both the computer laptop lcd and the external monitor
When I went just outside, he played
This is because the graphics card offers support for playback of the video when you play the video on the internal monitor

AVI video files play sound but no video in Windows Media Player 7
My video files avi play sound but no video in Windows Media Player 7. Video files avi are since 2002 and has played very well until I'm a new PC with Windows 7 so I know that the files are not corrupt. All my other files and videos play fine in Media Player. I checked online and seen the posts in other forums on the codecs being the problem. Does anyone know how to fix this? Based on the other forums I found it seems that it is not uncommon that a problem with Win7.
Also, is it possible to convert audio and video files in different formats with Media Player? Or do I need any other software to do this?

It is not that there is a problem in Windows 7, it is more likely that you don't have just the installed CODEC the video file is saved with. You will need to find a source, download and install any CODEC no MS yourself. You can use GSpot to identify CODECs used in AVI files. An alternative to downloading of many individual CODECs is to install FFDSHOW instead. Some media players like VLC and Media Player Classic also have internal CODECS and support for a wide variety of video and audio file types.
