Try to download a codec package, here's a link: http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/mirror.htm
A codec is simply a compression of a given audio or video file. The aim is to reduce
the size of the video or sound data without loosing display and or sound quality;
thus making a multimedia file that is much easier and faster to be transfred in a
given network (smaller the faster).
If you don't have codec pack you may unable to play video and sound data of a given
compression, its either you get an error message that the file can't be played, you'll
get a video without sound or vice versa, stactic and the like. Reading an encoded
video or audio is called decoding. A codec pack is simply a package of different
audio and video file decoders.
Good day!
