You might not have the required codecs to play the file.


Find out the required codec using Gspot. And then d/l that codec, install, and now play the file.

Or
D/l VLC player, it dont need any codecs. Just d'l it and play any files, even DVD movies.

or
D/l ffdshow, install it and now try to play the file, it will play.

or (if you are lazy)
D/l K-lite or ACE mega codec packs and install them.


Video codecs which are used commonly in avi files are divx codecs (div3, div4, etc..) or XVID. So use Gspot to find out the codecs that you need and d/l them.

Get Gspot Here

Get VLC Player Here

Get Klite Codec Pack Here

K-lite is the best one. Go for it.

u can go on with just a codec n playin them in mp10
install divx and while selecting products, just select codec (and no player)

ahh dude just only one codec pack will do it

installing more than one codec packs will only bulk your system
get the avi codec

I've had the same prob. the softwares mention in this thread cudnt opened it, some opened it but were really crawling.

I had a backup of Virtual Dub and used it and it worked well for many formats.

What u have to do is open the file in Virtual Dub and then again click on file[Icon] and then PREVIEW, u can see any formats u want.

Try it out...
