Now that Ive installed the codecs, Im still having troubles playing the file in [insert video player here]?
If you have installed your codecs correctly, you shouldn’t have a problem with your video player. However if you want a dedicated video player, that can handle any codec, I can recommend two video players. The first is Media Player Classic. This program has the look of the classic Windows Media Player, but can handle any codec out there. A lot more stable then the current Windows Media Player. The only change you have to make to the options is the picture below: The other player is VLC Media Player. This is a cross-platform player that has a unique ability. If a video file seems to be corrupted, while in transfer, this player is able to play the video no matter what. Real handy if you have a problem with Bittorrent at the time.
