nb88 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 My friend burnt some mpg files for me, from his computer after exporting from his mini-DVD cam, they work fine on his computer but when i open a video file from CD/drag and drop a video file to my PC windows explorer crashes and it just generally cocks up. Anyone know why this might be happening?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobnobs Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Got all the codecs n stuff? Might just be your pc's way of saying it cant read them...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nb88 Posted May 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Im not sure what codecs it'll use. When i opened a video file straight from the CD it seemed to play but windows explorer crashed aswell...really odd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Is the whole thing freezing up? Try it on a different player if you have one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nb88 Posted May 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 I've tried windows media player, vlc media player and importing into adobe - all crashed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 New PC? If you havent, get that Xvid codec or something, think theres a link in videos forum on here. Other than that, you might have to talk to someone who knows something about pc's haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
