Well, I've been searching the internet, with no particular luck I might add, for an answer to this problem, and it led me here.
Basically, with any video I try, (other than .mov quicktime videos), I do get sound, but theres no video, only a black screen. I've tried multiple .avi files, .mpg files, and .wmv files with no success. I know for sure I've got the right codecs for all the files, and I've tried multiple media players, inluding DivX Player, Windows Media Player 10 and Winamp to name a few, and all of them gave me the exact same problem. I have, however, been able to view the .avi and .mpg files through VirtualDub without any problems. But, I've recently been trying to view a .wmv file, which is of course not supported by VirtualDub.
I've searched through all the settings, etc. And I just can't figure out how to get it to work... I even re-installed my video drivers, re-installed all my codecs, and nothing is working. It hasn't always been this way, though. But I can't figure out what it was I did that caused it to change...
Do any of you have any ideas as to what the problem is here? Its got to be some simple setting or something I accidentally changed, but I simply can't figure it out and I'm really getting tired of searching for the solution.
Thanks for the help :)
