Problem with windows media player

[Bleuvert]

Hi,
I have a television connect to my pc, and when i try to play a video out the .MOV format, i see the video only on the pc and not on TV. But i see the windows media player frame and menu, but only black instead of the video on the PC. Thank's for your help.

Are you sure that your are playing the .mov through the Default Windows Media player (as in MP10, or whatever you are running). You might have .mov's set to run in Media Player Classic, or some other media player.

To check. Open one that works on your TV. Check TV that you get the correct video. In Media Player it's self, Click File, Open, choose your desired .mov > open.

It is possible that the MOV codec can not be processed by the TV/DVI output, which is the issue you won't be able to get around, unless there is another codec that has been designed for this. This would explain the problem.

Hope this Helps.

Isn't .mov run on the Quicktime program?

Free "Universal" Media Player?

yeah, but you can get WinMP codec converters.

Hope this Helps.
