Play Video Hoster 3.310

Not sure what you mean when you say they won't "load". Do you mean you can't add them to the playlist? Do you get an error msg saying that it's not a video?

If so chances are it's a codec issue.

Yes-by load I mean recognize the video and add to the playlist. I get no errors it just freezes the program. When I select video and it takes me to the select screen my file is on the list as a mpeg (where you chose the file type) so I am sure it is a valid video file. It plays on windows media player. I was thinking the problem was that it was not a video karaoke file but then an mpeg is an mpeg no matter what it contains right?

Thanks for your help.

you need to add a divx codec. google it, and you will find what you need

also, rename a mpeg to mpg I have had to do this before

Thanks for the info.

I downloaded the divx program but honestly I do not have a clue what I need to do with it. The video did play on the divx player. I am in the 19th century when it comes to dvd stuff. I'm just beginning to get a handle on cd's!

I renamed the file to MPG and it did load onto the play list. It played but only on the singers screen. It would not let me either move the screen or double click it to sent it to the tv. The extended screen setting are correct as I did an "identify" and also tested a song.

Am I trying to do something that is not doable by sending the video to the other displays?

Unlike conventional KMA's the video will not show on the Hoster program, and will not show as full screen by double clicking it.
Do all your moving and resizing using a regular KMA (that's not in full screen). And then you video will use those settings.

MiMi,
After installing the divx player, you can now play the video's on either the hoster video screen, or the windows media player screen also.

to move the hoster video screen, you must stretch it. It will stretch, not move.

But when you have it set, it will always come up in the same place.
