All I want to do is be able to play my m4v song videos. Help needed..

1: When I installed version K-Lite_Codec_Pack_570_Standard some time ago, if I go to start/ All Programs then look down the list do you not see a folder "k-lite Codec Pack" if I click this I see a list of other folders one of them being "Codec Tweak tool" are you not seeing this folder ?
After clicking this another list opens with a selection choose "Manage Preferred source folders" then play around with these settings.

2:how do I get Hoster 5.02 to convert my m4v file to wmv.
Hoster does not convert your video it just plays it at whatever type you load, no conversion takes place.

In your original query you were asking about MP4 video, now you are mentioning m4v files. I have never used m4v type myself so am unable to give you advise on these only MP4
