Sup ppl-

I have a .mpeg that i can't play through windows media.
i look up online and a suggestion was to d/l the xvidcore codec.

I did and unzip the files to a folder.
However, I do not know the location of where WM store their codecs.
Can anyone tell me where the path is?

Am i going the right way?

1. Codec's can be stored anywhere, they are registered with Windows/dshow.
2. That's not going to decode any MPEG content you have. XviD has nothing to do with MPEG's.
3. Reinstall DirectX to reinstall your MPEG-1 decoder.
4. Install ffdshow and enable it to decode MPEG-2 if you have MPEG-2 content.

thanks.

i've installed ffdshow and now i'm going to resintall directx. thanks a lot cal!!

Damn that's weird... I just had to format and I have the same problem. Reinstalling now.
