Afternoon,
In the last couple of days my computer has started being unable to playback the video content of files.
For example: it all started on Windows Media Player, which will play the audio content of the file, but without showing any picture moving or otherwise.
However, it is not just a WMP problem - this is also happening with DivX player, Power DVD, and Windows Movie Maker. Videos in YouTube will play, as will MPEG-4 files through QuickTime/iTunes.
I don't think it's codecs - I have downloaded and installed up to date codecs packs.
The trouble began (we think) when we installed a new game - but what could it have done, what settings could it have changed to have messed up video playback so royally?
Any help from techie types very gratefully received.
Thanks.
