Okay, so I got an HD video camcorder for Christmas. Yay.
The bad news is the camera stores all the videos I take as AVI files.
When I try to play the videos, I only get audio, no video.
Apparently, the Windows Media Player, the Veoh player, the Divx player, and the Xvid player are all missing the needed codec.
Windows Media Player tells me I need an "intel [numbers]" codec to play the video.
So, I go and install the K-lite mega and basic codec pack. They both result in the "Setup Files are corrupt" error message. However, Veoh tells me where I can download a trusted codec pack, and I do so. I download the "Media Player Codec Pack" from download.com, which supposedly supports both 32-bit and 64-bit formats, and then nothing would play. No audio, no video. The players wouldn't even buffer the file, just stay on a black screen.
I uninstalled the codec pack and now the players are back to playing only audio.
I've googled many, many times to try and fix this myself. Sadly, google has failed me.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance.
