Re: WMP v.11 - Audio but no Video

Hi Neil,

Could you help me in changing the windows media player resolution in a
website. I asked it some days ago, but didnt got response.

I paste all the code here:

<script language="javascript">

var volumAra; // variable que emmagatzema el volum en cada moment

////////////////////CREACIO DEL COMPONENT REPRODUCTOR WINDOWS MEDIA
PLAYER ////////////////////////////////////

document.writeln('<OBJECT ID=Player
classid=clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6 height=225 width=455>');
// 225 x 455 nou | 308 x 581 original
document.writeln('<PARAM name=URL value='xxxx.wmv'');
document.writeln('<PARAM name=autoStart value=true>');
document.writeln('</OBJECT>')

///////////////////////////////// FI CREACIO COMPONENT //////////////

//carrego la configuració personalitzada de disseny del reproductor

document.Player.uiMode="none";
document.Player.stretchToFit="true"; // true
document.Player.VideoBorderWidth=0;
document.Player.enableContextMenu=0; // 0
document.Player.settings.volume=80; // PER DEFECTE 60, EL MAXIM ÉS 100

</script>

Thanks,

Arnau

When I installed Windows XP Pro a while ago, I noticed that I could no
longer
play some AVI files through the Web using IE or Firefox. I had audio but
no
video. If I saved that same file to my computer, it played just fine. I
never bothered to deal with the issue because I had more pressing chores
to
manage.

I recently installed WMP v.11 in the hopes that the problem would be
corrected. It wasn't. I think it has to do with the codec, but I don't
understand by the AVI would play locally on my computer but not remotely
via
the Web.

The same thing happens when I try to use QuickTime to play the AVI over
the
Web -- audio but no video.

Does anyone have any idea how I can determine what codec I might be
missing
that is specific for Web play?

I seem to remember this was reported for AVIs using the Indeo codec,
now owned by Ligos (who don't license the codec under reasonable cost
terms).

So support for that was pulled from the codecs which WMP can use.

You might be able to play them using FFDShow, which I seem to remember
has a checkbox for Indeo : http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow

HTH
