Windows Media Player no video?

Dooom · 2002-08-11 09:15:16

I recently installed windows media player and went to watch Lord Of The Rings but when it started playing i couldnt see anything, just the sound. The picture was the visual you get when playing music. Some help on the matter would be great.

Is it an AVI you're trying to watch?
If so, make sure you've got the right codecs installed.
