What is the video file extension? Common files extensions like, AVI, mov, mpg, etc., tells you which codec to get. If you are running Windows with the latest service pack and have loaded Media Player, many video types will play. Another possibility is the video file is corrupt. File extensions like AVI can have many codec possibilities and can be cause for frustration.
