Windows Media Player issue? 4294667084:4294967267:4294967281 WTF?
 

Hi Guys,

Ok, I was trying some new video editing software & downloaded DirectX 9.0 & since then my windows media player can not play Mpeg files correctly? When opening an mpeg file, it takes like 30 seconds of an 1 minute clip before WMP opens & I get this as the media length:
4294667084:4294967267:4294967281

I downgraded my DirectX back to 7.0 but still no luck. All other files like WMV & AVI are ok... Anyone as any feedback on what the hell as happened here & what should I do to fix this problem... Dont tell me to format my disk:(

Thx
PJ

Found a link to a forum......I think it's German so if you understand the language....you may have an answer

What I'm thinking is that it may be the same problem I was having last week where when you play an mpeg, it crashes each and everytime. I posted the answer --> I'll get you the link to the thread. BRB


EDIT..... I get an error if I post a link so I 'll just give you the url.

LOL thats funny I was just looking at that thread like 10 minutes ago, are you reading my mind:)

It worked anyway.......cool :)

I'm a fortune teller :) Did you try it? If you installed new programs or update them? It may actually be your fix...

Ok but my media player is not crashing. The movie does not open upon clicking, when it does open the bar & the white line is not moving on the media player, its just stuck on the left. Very annoying if you ask me:) Do you think I am missing a codec?

Well.....that's what it would do to me......but after awhile it would crash - most of the time. I'd try it.... If I'm not mistaken in the forum that I linked in the thread, some people were crashing and others weren't.
