Re: Mp4 Video Issues
You have to have the codec's installed for the videos to work correctly. For some reason Microsoft stopped sharing it's own codecs with other software that is why sometimes things will play in media player but not in Hoster. There are various things written on line about this, I can't remember if this started with Vista or Windows 7.
I have the codec pack installed on my windows 7 and I can play any type of video through Hoster. It is part of the recommended changes mentioned here: http://www.mtu.com/upgrades/hoster/windows8-changes.htm
Most software that plays videos will state that you need the right codec installed for them to play correctly.
I don't have Windows 8 so can't advise on specifics points with it.
If you want to be extra safe, create a restore point before installing the codec, then if you have any problems you can easily return to your present state.
