Solve : indeo? |

Answer» When I try and open certain THINGS I get this message: The program you are TRYING to run requires a current Indeo codec. When I try and open certain things Indeo is an Intel video technology and probably is needed or used by a webcam or other imaging device. Indeo CODECS are not free, so we need to find out what programs are requesting this codec and if you actually will need it or not. What files/programs specifically trigger this prompt when you open them? well it will sometimes open when I try and run a DVD mostly, it tries to open when I open my video editing software, but it did it today when I was plugging in my thumb drive. I don't have a web cam on this computer. I've never had this problem before I changed hard drives. So i'm guessing i'm missing a driver I had installed before. The problem is actually with misguided video codecs it sounds like. What program do you use to watch DVDs and video files?DLoad and try the K-Lite codec pack and see if things improve... And supply more info...Okay it's not really the DVD viewre causing the problem. It's Windows Media Player. I have an animation a company did for my company and it will only play the audio no video on Windows Media Player. Download VLC Media Player: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ Try to view the video, post back here. The problem is you don't have the proper codecs required to view the file you're trying to view. VLC is compatible with almost all codecs and comes with ffdshow which uses DirectShow to decode plenty of different video formats.So I downloaded that player, I didn't get the Inedo error but got this instead, No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "IV50". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this. I've been able to play the video other ways in the past so i'm not too concerned, but it would be nice to have the indeo error message not show up. What version of Windows are you running ? ? If it's XP then INSTALL Service Pack 2 and see if it plays...it is windows XP home edition and I do have sp 2 intalled.IV50 is Indeo Video 5.0 and you'll need that codec to view the file. Visit this link: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?strState=LIVE&ProductID=355&DwnldID=2846 It looks like it contains the codec you need, and after installing you can try to view the video in EITHER WMP or VLCMP. If that doesn't fix it, post back here. Your other option is to write the animation company that made the file and either ask them for a codec or ask them for a more compatible format.Quote from: patio on February 09, 2009, 10:20:08 AM DLoad and try the K-Lite codec pack and see if things improve... Has this been done yet ? ?No, I got a few replies at the same time and didn't see that one. Where do I find K-lite?Clicky... |
