    I have a video file with .mp4 extension. Windows Media Player 11 was unable to play this file. I already have K-Lite codec pack installed. So I want to know what do I need to do to play this file ?

    Should i try with Winamp :confused:

    You can play mp4 format files in WMP 11.

    Download : 3ivx D4 4.5.1
    File Size: 1.06MB

    Just Download and install this Codec. This Codec is for Windows Media Player.

    Thanks for your help. However after installation, I could not see any video...only the sound was audible. So I installed K-Lite Codec Pack 2.79 FULL from here and that solved the problem :p

    K-lite is a good codec pack. Since you said that u already installed it and facing problems opening mp4 file, I suggested a codec meant for playing mp4 file on WMP. It worked for me. Anyways, good to hear that your problem is solved. Thanks for feedback. Keep posting. :)
