I have no picture on Windows Media Player (Vista)

I have Windows Vista Premium Home addition. There is no picture when I play a movie using Windows Media Player. Sound is okay. I tried a few things. It did not work. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Use gspot or avicodec to find out which codec you’re missing

Hi Kari,

I have same problem, did you get it to work??

I got this problem - so annoying >:|

I have the same problem only appeared after windows update vid files veiable before now only give sound used gspot not fixed gives message Codec Status Undetermined as anyone managed to fix this problem cannot backdate to prevoius windows media player now

you guys please install appropriate codec.

either download Divx player from www.divx.com and install only codecs and dirac show filters.OR use other playes having internal codecs. some popular freeware players that plays most of the video and audio files including MKV are below
1. KMP Player
2. VLC media player
3. GOM player
