Re: Problems playing video files on extended desktop

Try installing this codec : Combined Community Codec Pack.... Credit goes to the author. I have no problem playing all my video files and you can tweak filters.

Re: Problems playing video files on extended desktop

I happened to find out about this codec because of the same problem you have. I have 5000+ vcd songs and i had problem with an nvidia video card. And also most of my friends has the hoster and lite and they have the same problems as you are. My suggestion is to do install it and if it didn't work for you, i'll recommend other solutions. But i believe it will solve your problem. Klite codec didn't solve our problem that's why we look for another one and this one solve it.

Re: Problems playing video files on extended desktop

And remember, you cannot just copy .dat files of a vcd. You have to convert it or else, it will work but you gonna have problems.

What kind of problems?

The few that I have work just fine after using Windows Explorer to copy them.

What is the disk manufacturer that contains the .DAT files?

Thanks!

Re: Problems playing video files on extended desktop

I would like to no if this has been sorted, I am having the same problems since updating, it has happend before and I have wasted many hours and lots of money on updates, virus scans, hardware and raised many tickets on this. When hoster first was able to play video I had no problems and would see it in both the extended desk top and in preview window. After many hoster updates I know cannot play MPEG2 through hoster on a secong monitor (extended desktop). I can if I drop Windows media player to the sencond desktop. And on a ealier version of hoster using one of the insta buttons (now gone) so I have 2500 converted lazer karaoke I cannot play and another £40.00 lighter in the pocket. Progress
