rbg43 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 When Windows Media Center goes to play my first torrent download, an AVI, it says "error downloading codec" and plays the audio only, but no video. It plays other AVI's just fine.What have I /haven't I done?Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hofshi Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 you can use Gspot to check which codec you need for that AVI file.alternatively, you can just download the K-Lite codec pack (full), and you won't miss any codecs ever again...Edit:Gspot link:http://www.headbands.com/gspot/download.htmlK-Lite codec pack Full:http://www.free-codecs.com/K_Lite_Codec_Pack_download.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbg43 Posted January 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Thanks very much. GSPOT told me what I needed and a google search got me to what I needed (DivX). Working fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
