 Posted: Sat Apr 07, 2012 9:34 am Post subject: Some videos are not played with F3 |
 |
|
my observations with some files in my video collection are :
-no sound, video plays at enormous (high) speed
-no sound, no video (shows only data listing)
-shows a few first seconds of the 1.5hr long file, then stops
these files are played back ok in win media or bs players. well, wc is not a dedicated video player but it is likely to use the same direct show interface as they do. i could upload them for anyone to test but have no web space to share full movies. my version is 8.0b24 x64. contact me if u want these files. |

TC's internal lister does not use a direct show interface (older Windows Media player interface which may use complete different codecs compared with the standalone Windows Media Player) .
Try this lister plugin instead:

| i tried it, things have got some better. now i can preview my .avi & .mp4, but not .mpg, .mkv, or .vob (dvd-rip) files. maybe that is the plugin itself - i dont know whether its worth contacting the author... |

Search for "mmedia.ini" in your TC path and add the needed extensions to the list.

MMEXT=mpe,mpg,m1v,mpeg,wma,wmv,avi,aiff,wav,au,snd,aifc,rmi,midi,mid,cda,wvx,wax,asf,asx,vob,ifo,dat,mkv |
If Windows Media Player can play those files the plugin should do it also.
If WMP can't open those files (btw. mkv is a container format which can hold different coded data streams) you should search for codecs (DivX,..) which can extend the WMP possibilities.
But truly if you want to watch a DVD/Blu-ray movie, the TC lister is not the best solution.
Better use a standalone player like:
Mpc-hc: http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/
VLC: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
both include codecs for the most important media formats.
