  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Sometimes certain files are encoded as an avi or mpeg file, but lack audio or video.

it's a common occurrence. If I were you, I'd uninstall Windows Media Player, download the new version, or get new versions of the codecs you think are messed up.

Question: Did the files you are trying to play through Windows media player work before, or is it no showing all of your video files?

Also, if it's a new file, maybe you should try checking the properties of the file. Once you get the properties window up, go over to details and see if there actually is a video for that file, because if it says unknown, then all your lacking is the codec to play it. I had problems for the longest time trying to get audio out of certain files, when all I needed was the correct codec, one I didn't get when I installed the Divx.

Well, there's one thing I can think of that will help. Go to a forum where they know about this and either post a topic about it or do a search for it. And I'm not talking about this forum. Try http://forums.divx.com/ or just a general google search.
