I have trouble playing some type of "r2"~"r32" extension video files. It appeared to be icons of "winrar". When I opened them using winrar, they are compressed video files inside and a 70mb zip file contained an 700mb video file. Suspected to be DVD format but I can't seem to find the right player to play them. Anyone could help me with this?

Right click on any of those files and extract it, then you can play it.

It will take me xyzGB of space for all those files

The only way to play those files is by extracting them.If you want to save few Gig's, I think there is not many choice you can opt for.

Ensure you have latest DirectX runtime and video driver installed.This error is due to:

• Color depth setting
• Desktop resolution
• Screen refresh rate is too high

Try lowering the desktop resolution, color depth and refresh rate and then try again.Don't run resolution less than 640 x 480 since DVD titles' video resolution is higher than that.

i got latest directX installed (directx9)
video driver??? i think i haven't install yet
any suggestion what driver shd i install to my notebook?
searching at download.com so many video driver there, i dunno which one suitable with my notebook


pls help, noob here

WindowsXP will provide with it's own driver, if you lucky the hardware it's supported.What model of your notebook ?Do you have any CD driver ? You can check at the manufacturer website.Maybe driver available for download.

i use XP SP2, but its not supported
i use Compaq Presario V2000
i dun hv CD driver, all download online from http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwar...&lang=en&os=228

so many driver there, confused which one the correct one

Just download "Driver - Graphics" - size 10.63MB

thx a lot

PowerDVD does not support the current display mode. (DDraw Overlay mode is recommended)

Please lower the screen resolution and color depth, for example, 800x600 with 256 colors. Or you may adjust the refresh frequency, for example, to 75 Hz.

this is the error msg again, i this video driver already installed, coz i can ply VCD movie, only DVD cannot play

maybe this is not assosiated with this thread,sorry

standalone vcd/dvd player that support mp4 format, i always thought that an .avi file is a mp4, is that true?

I'm not sure whether this question has been asked here or not.
If I'm watching a dual language drama (RMVB file) using media player classic, how to switch it to only one language by not turning off one of the output channels?

Thanks in advance

sifus,

hi dudes,

which audio player that you guy feel that provides the BEST SOUND QUALITY in playing .mp3 files?
in my experience, window media player provides the best sound quality in playing .wma files.

Thanks.

is there any other video player that can play .flv video?
cause the flv player can't forward the timing etc, so have to start from begining everytime.

Thanks

no at the moment.only flv support flv extension..

nvm, found the solution, after install flv player, u can use media player to play it too. Thanks to the mod
ENJOY!

I play 4:3 videos and it occupies the whole screen using WMP9

Why don't you try it with WMC and see

I use this one - AVS DVD Player.

Along with DVDs it plays H.264, 3gp, Quicktime, WMV-HD and others. Comes as freeware, no ads or spyware, and includes some interesting features like changing aspect ratio or bookmarking your favourite spots in a DVD. Has a nice audio processing feature which makes stereo files sound like 5.1 or 7.1 surround!

Quick grab AVS DVD Player at http://www.avsmedia.com/DVDPlayer/

hey there... i got a problem with my .mkv videos(i burn them into a dvd------> data files).. i used to be able to play them but right now i can't.. When i play the video, i only hear the audio but there isn't any pictures.. all i can see is a very fine vertical line.. i m guessing that it is the video picture which somehow got compressed into this fine vertical line....

Any ideas to wat's da problem anyone??

Hi! Everyone,
Anybody tried the Korean player 'KM Player'. I have installed
it and now it's my default player. Tried all others but none
can compare to this KM Player.

You must register(free) to download. But there is another site,
no registeration. Go for the English version. For skin, go for 'WMP 11'.
Site for download : [url=http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Video-Players/KMPlayer.shtml]
http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=KMPlayer
Try it. This is th best player at the moment.

Meh, if I want a complete all in one player, WMP is still the best for me. If not I can always use the low resource MPC

Im trying a audio player called Beoplayer. It is so nice! It is better than winamp & foorbar. but the interface is not so good. but the sound come out is so nice!

It must be related with codec pack or splitter. Try re-install your codec (or codec pack). If still same, download & install Haali Media Splitter. Get it from free-codecs.com

any player that can flip the video upside down?
dl-ed a video...says ffds compression...turns out the video was upside down
any way 2 solve?damn annoying

i wonder this is d place 2 ask or not, i'm having this weird behavior when playback directly through network frm another PC.. i tried 2 access d video which is a AVI by double click d file name throught network place.. when it show..d video is upside down.. which is weird.. it shouldnt behave like tat...? tried both window media player 10 n classic still behave like tat. it only happened with some AVI.. some got no prob.. weird.. HELP!!

**but when i play using d PC where d file is.. it got no prob.. y is tat?

hey i dled Death Note movie....reso is 1440x810...XviD codec

but the codec can't handle it...during fast-moving scenes it becomes pixelised...

so i'm wondering which codec can handle such huge video file?

try ffdshow

---

Added on February 17, 2007, 3:11 ambecoz the bitrate isnt given enough at fast moving scene, so it become blocky.

the pixelized scenes still there no matter what decoder u use
but decoder + deblocker(post processing) might solve the pixelized problem.

any mpeg4-asp decoder(xvid, libavcodec, divx) should be no problem to hadle this video, as long as ur computer is able to handle the power hungry post processing filter.

This post has been edited by 1024kbps: Feb 17 2007, 03:11 AM

tried at fren's laptop no pixelisation whatsoever -.-"

and the vid is 2000kbps

tried DivX player,FFDShow codec,XviD codec,DivX codec from the divx player -.-"

This post has been edited by Nightstalker1993: Feb 23 2007, 02:27 PM

Is your friends laptop fast?
the 2000kbps and 1440x810 really can slow things down if u are using wmp or whatever directshow-based player.

i suggest u try vlc nightly,
http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win32/?C=M;O=D
try branch build. (trunk build had wierd problem as the ugly black box will popup when vlc startup )

Divx player is great too, if ur computer have ATI video card(9200 above?),
it can use ATI hardware accelerated post-procesing to enchance video quality.

how to make my winamp can display the song at my WLM display name thr?

Hmm, Did u enable the option "show what am i listening to" ?
im using winamp 5.33 , wln 8.1, and its work for me.

Im not sure if u need a mess patch to enable this fucntion
you could try and and see, http://mess.be/

i got turn on.i using winamp 5.32 n wlm 8.1
last time i can display it but then i disable it from winamp settings.so how to turn back since i 4get de

Try install 5.33 and remember to install the "now playing" plugins,
Which is available from full installation.

i have install 5.33 n full installation but still cant find any option to get display in wlm...

Hmm, try the attached file.
put it into winamp components folder, and restart winamp.

The plugin is actually from the mess patch.

woots.i got it now.thx for the file

I am having problem playing x264 mkv as i can not get it tp play on any of my media player smoothly. Once a while when there is a complicated scene the picture will freeze but only audio continues to play, then the picture will skip a few seconds and continue playing untill the next freeze. I have ffdshow and Haali Media Splitter install. i am not sure if its my hardware not fast enough, or its the setting in my media player or ffdshow. Below is my computer's specs:

P4 2.8 Prescott
DFI Lanparty UT 915
1 GB Corsair XMS RAM
Nvidia 6800GS PCI-E
Creative Audigy 2 ZS

So can anybody who can play x264 mkv files tell me what media player u use and what is the setting?

Added on March 10, 2007, 12:40 amOk after trying with Purevideo, Cyberlink.H264 and CoreAVC Decoder. Turns out that the CoreAVC Decoder handle this x264.mkv best with minimum lag. How ever the cpu load is close to 60%~80% most of th time, where the other 2 will be around 40%~60%.
I will stick to CoreAVC for the time being untill a better decoder is out.

i previously installed Storm Codec , version 7 i think, dl from baofeng.com, storm codec official site, previously using fine until yesterday... when i opened a video file, my AVG detected a threat in my MPC and force to clean it, then i reinstall storm codec and same things happen.

I so disappointed and i go back to baofeng.com to check any solving issue or not, unfortunately no. But they come out with their own player instead of MPC, named Storm II. I supports almost all codecs i think, and things solved, i can play my video files again.

Then i try to open those video files in WMP [which is default not supported ], strangely it can play divx files. i think the Storm II enhanced WMP as well...

But sad thing is, just Chinese character they support, so my player appear random codes...a bit ugly there, hope they come out with English version next time.

noob question:
what video player can play subs automatically like bsplayer?

the new version of stormcodec is stromII.. the previous version is 7.02.01 n the version before dat they put threat on them.. so try using the version 7.02.01 instead..

anyone know where can i stil download the TT player? cos the link at 1st page is dead...thx...

mplayer, a powerful audio/video player that can play almost any codecs and containers(thanks to ffmpeg, and various libs.)

homepage, http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html

binaries http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php (contains GUI version of mplayer)
and http://celticdruid.no-ip.com/xvid/ (contains various version that optimized for Generic, Pentium 4, Pentium M, Core2, Amd64 cpus.)

Is there any audio player that can randomly play songs each time I open that player??

what u meant by randomly play songs? think most of the players have the "shuffle" option to randomize the song selection

For example?

winamp? foobar2000? wmp11?

I hope this is the right place for me to ask this question!

Q: Why i dl some mkv and mpeg4 files got many spotted colour 1(this part got many grouped colour and that part and the other part also)?the file can run but only the spotted colour problem.I try with wmp,wmp classsic,result is the same..

download media player classic from here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=170561
, run it, then press "O" > playback > output > from Directshow video there select one of them "VMR7/9 windowed/rensderless".
play ur vid n post a screenshot here

using media player classic, during playback u can go to file > save image as and it will save a .bmp or .img file for you at the particular frame scene.

I try use ur method d.Still the same!!

1024kbps : I try to safe also,got error.I post the error d at bottom!

after select the VMR7/9 restart mpc, see if its work for u.

guys, my MPC player play .avi movie which is in axxo format just show black only with audio.

WMP is ok, what is the reason behind?
please advice.

thanks!

axxo?
download this : http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mediainfo...51&big_mirror=0
, open the axxo video with mediainfo, the post the output here.

I've been recommended by my friend to try JetAudio because he said it provides similar if not better audio quality as Winamp with lesser memory usage.Anybody with experience can shed some light on this matter, i've never tried Jetaudio before and i'm a skeptic of other players beside Winamp.Thanks for the help, i'll be doing some comparing even though i'm not that good at picking up differences unless its pointed out.

i'm using GOM player now; it's a pretty good video player imo. it can also play audio files though not as good as other major audio players.
