A friend of mine videod me being interviewed for Spanish TV at a local Pilota game and when downloaded to my laptop as a MPEG-4 file will only replay in Quicktime as Windows Media Player 11 says it can't play it.

Anyone know if there is a way to convert the video file to play in WMP11.

Layman's language if poss please hehe

Cheers,

Neil

Or, is this a computer forum query rather than photography and video one?

Install the K-lite codec pack full from here...

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Code...

...then make sure WMP11 is your default player (Control Panel....Set Program Access and Defaults) and in WMP11 go to "Tools"..."Options" and click on the "File Types" tab, click the "Select All" button and now WMP11 will play almost every video or audio file without conversion....

...including Mpeg4 (.mp4)..smile

Normally I would have sent someone to Free-codecs.com for this download but the site is having issues at the moment.
