so what do i need to download for it to work

I’m new to this computer media thing. I was wanting to know how to thange a SFV file to AVI file.

Hey I have an mp4 player which plays amv files but when i convert the file to amv and try to play it on my windows media player 11, it says it cant play it. What do I have to do?

Go 2 windows media player, options.
Under player there is a thing u can check mark to download all codecs

There is a free codecs download site.

I have checked everywhere for a Options dialog box or another codec’s downloader but I am still stuck! Can you help?
~Thank you~

First things first, Becca. I doubt you have the biggest problem. In fact, I would say that there are people who have much bigger problems than yours. So you illegaly downloaded a few episodes of a TV show, tried to change their format to AMV for some unknown reason, and put them in Windows Movie Maker. You clearly have a big problem in that you have no idea how to go about using a computer properly, but that’s OK! We’re here to help you and to make you feel better about yourself. Next time, don’t pretend you’re dying of starvation or terminally ill; or indeed that your family life is falling apart around you and your best friend just passed away. You do not have the biggest problem, and if you do, you have not just mentioned it.

As you would know had you just READ A FEW PAST POSTS before you bothered posting yourself (although I suppose maybe writing out that post took your mind off the biggest problem, you can find the codec at [url]http://www.free-codecs.com/[/url]. Furthermore, it isn’t particularly hard to find “Options” in any Windows software - its in the same place in almost every piece of software you get from Microsoft: Tools — Options. What a shame even the most basic software solutions escape you.

So 'yes' is the answer - I can help. But next time, do me a favour. Read past posts, and if and only if your question hasn’t already been asked, ask nicely.

This may have been asked already, but don’t flame, because I’m too lazy to look through the posts, but... Which codec pack should I D/L for Windows Movie Maker? I am completely lost at that site.

Lets keep it simple. The solution is at hand......Go to

http://www.conceppt.com

Look at the menu column on the right and click “Downloads 2”
Once there scroll down the page and click “Conversion Service”
A new page will open. Click the “Choose file” button and upload your file.
A bit further down you’ll find an “output format” menu/button: choose format and then click the “OK” button.
Wait for a minute whilst it converts and then download the converted file.

Before uploading use QuickTime and “export” your video to a .mov file, with the following settings..
Video...Compression: H.264, Quality: Medium, Frame rate: 15, Encoding mode: multipass, Dimension: 160x120, Sale: Fit within (160x120).
Sound... Format: Integer (Big Endian), Sample rate: 44,100 khz, Sample size: 16-bit, Channels: Mono.
I’ve found that all .flv files, of whatever size, converted as above, work. Therefore if youre not having any luck convert first to .flv and then use QT to export as above and then upload to the convertion service.

Ciao4now.
