    I downloded some vid last night, downloaded fine & saved to my folder,,,,

    Problem is I can`t see the image in MEdia Player, sound is fine, NO PIC :(

    At the start of the playback it says “CODEC ACQUIRED” but I don`t know what else to do!!!

    I have tried the download 3 times with the same result, any suggestions ????

    Hey Eagle

    Is the footage from an older camcorder? I have the same problem with my old panisonic camcorder. This is how I get around it.
    Try opening windows movie maker and playing in there. If it does play you can then save it to play on the computer and it will save it in a format that will play in media player.

    Nah mate, it`s a new vid file from the net. Actually the one that Robbo was on about last night!

    Worked for him, obviously, but I can`t get the image up :unsure:

    You will probably need to decode it. Don’t know how to but a mate has done it before.

    I’ll keep trying to think of stuff for you to try. I really have no idea what to do…

    You can download full codec packs like klite from download.com and then you’ll never have to worry about codecs again ;)
