Hi and Welcome !
1st -
What 'player' are you trying to use for viewing your video files ?
What type of video files are you referring to... .avi or .wmv or .mpg or what ?
Do you have any CODEC 'packs' installed ?
Now, if you are REALLY impatient...
Download the VLC player from
VLC media player - Overview
and next download the
standard CODEC Pack from
Cole2k Codecs
There are many other choices available to you but these two will probably get you going...
You can always try other stuff later...
Idea is to get you ON THE AIR NOW, right ?
The VLC player is simple-clunky looking... Don't be deceived !
If you download the Cole2k Codecs, be sure to only run the simple or easy installation. (You do NOT need the toolbar that is 'offered' !)
