Solve : Media center not working? |
|
Answer» when I click on media center to watch t.v. this is the message I get Decoder Error - The video decoder has either malfunctioned or is not installed How do I correct this please?? It looks like some missing codec. Get this: http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm I finally figured out what was wrong. The media center would not work (live t.v.) nor would windows media player PLAY a dvd movie. It was missing a decoder. I tried to find a free decoder to no AVAIL. I purchased one from NVIDIA for $20.00 and both are working like a charm. I don't know what happened to the decoder, but it was gone. I woudn'g know how to get it back either...An nVidia decoder ? ?Yes a decoder from NVIDIA. My graphics card is NVIDIA, there were a lot I could choose from, but I CHOSE NVIDIA. All working perfectly now.. Just wanted to share this so there could be closure to my post. They don't charge for them which is why i asked...where did this come from ? ?If you can find free decoders that will work, I would like to know where. I looked and could not find anything. They offer decoders for a price. This came from NVIDIA..ClickThis says "Free Download" Does this mean after you download it for free, when you go to install it you must pay? Most so-called "free" downloads are exactly that, you can download them, but you cannot install with out paying. I dont' want to TRY it because I don't want to mess up my computer, but I suspect that is what this is. I will keep the link however and see if it is really free or not..How would I know if this was a "free" installation??Read the article...at the bottom it tells you how to register it for Free... |
