Answer» I've been installing a fresh version of WIN XP Pro and all programs. When I play a video in Windows Media Player 11, there's a purple tinge over the whole screen. The video seems fine otherwise. WMP default codec is "Windows Media 9". How do I change the video codec for WMP?
I use SageTV to record TV shows. Within SageTV, you can choose which video codec to use. I'm thinking if I change the default Windows video codec, this will FIX the problem.
Under Device Manager, Sound & Video Game CONTROLLERS, there's a listing for Video Codecs. Is there a way to change/reinstall?
I've installed/uninstalled NVIDIA video codecs before, but not the Windows default codec.Download: http://www.free-codecs.com/XP_Codec_Pack_download.htm, and see, if it helps...I was finally able to figure out the default video codec. There are several methods listed at http://forums.sage.tv/forums/showthread.php?s=febb276dbb79cb97cce5f291cc9e5092&p=161090#post161090
As far as my problem, I reinstalled WMP 11 and it fixed the purple tinge.Thanks for posting back
