HD Video Can't be Played

[IronCruz]

when I try to play HD video with Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player, my whole screen becomes black and after 4 to 8 seconds screens becomes like the above picture and there occurs an error, is there any solution for this. Please help me. Don’t make digit fan so sad.
My PC Configuration is as follows
Processor : Intel Celeron D 2.40GHz
Motherboard : Gigabyte 8I845GVMRZ
Hard Disk : Seagate 40GB ST340015A Ultra ATA
RAM : 760MB DDR1
OS : MS WINDOWS XP SP 2
I have no graphic card.

Get KMPlayer. It's the best for all type of files. Heck even better than VLC player.

I agree. I don't why it is not so popular. It is SO SO good. If you don't want to try KMPlayer, give GOMPlayer a try. But for God's sake, don't use VLC (don't flame me).

Are you using CoreAVC?

I'm not sure if the processor and RAM configuration will suffice in playing HD stuff on your PC.

^^ Its good enough. a 2.4 GHz proccy, and a 760 MB ram... Install K-Lite Codec Pack and you're done.

Klite codec pack is the answer

But Girish already mentioned that Media Player Classicis not taking the file

 

[dheeraj_kumar]

He said it doesnt work with MPC, but he did not mention if he has K-Lite installed or not.

 

[JojoTheDragon]

May be you need a gpu. But better give K-Lite Codac Pack a try.

A celeron D 2.4 should be okay for upto 720p content. It may not be able to handle 1080p comfortably.

You can try using the CCCP codec pack. It works pretty well for me. Comes bundled with MPC.

VLC also works fine for me. (Why is VLC bad??)

Sorry for bumping into this thread. I have a good configuration with respect to processor and RAM but I have a CRT monitor. Do I need to have an LCD monitor to get the full effect of HD stuff? I don't have sufficeint money to buy an LCD now.

CRT monitor will do fine, as long as you can set a resolution of 1280x720 or higher on it.
HD is 720p onwards ie. 720p, 1080i and 1080p.

 

[ajayritik]

What about settings of 1024*768? Will this suffice? Once I adjust the settings to 1280*720 my video screen on the monitor shrinks vertically. Do I have to adjust the monitor menu screen for left and right width?

 

[dheeraj_kumar]

@ajay
Set your monitor's resolution to the maximum possible. Thats it.

You will surely need a entry level graphic card to enjoy the HD movies. Otherwise if any way you succeed then still the playback will not be smooth enough.

The maximum that is available for me is 20548*15436. Do you think I should set my monitor resolution to this?

 

[ashwinsid]

Use KMPlayer. When the video is playing, press the * button in the numpad to see different aspect ratios.

If it doesnt play in KMPlayer, your system cant handle the load.

Can someone please clarify whether I need to have an LCD monitor to experience the real HD stuff. Whether I would not be able to find the same experience on a CRT Monitor?
