Error C00D1199 or "Unsupported Format" means little to nothing in terms of a
single fix and doesn't "always" really mean that you are trying to play an
unsupported format. There is not a single thing you can do to fix it. It
will greatly depend on what you are doing when you get the error along with
your system configuration.
One of the first things you will want to check is if you are playing a
supported file type. The link below links the file types playable and not
playable in Windows Media Player.

You might receive this for an AVI if you don't have the correct codec for
that AVI installed. If you get this while playing an AVI see below...
Using a DirectShow decoding filter such as FFDShow will decrease the
problems you could run into with codec problems. FFDshow will decode XviD,
DivX 3/4/5, 3IVX, and has support for many other codec's. It can be
downloaded at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=53761&package_id=59355&release_id=255667
If you just wish to install the individual codec's for your specific video
or FFDShow doesnt support the codec for you file please do the following.
- Download and use GSpot (http://www.headbands.com/gspot/download.html)
- Run the installer, open GSpot, goto File>>Open.
- Look for the 4CC code for the file's Video Codec
- http://www.zachd.com/pss/pss.html#codec will help you.
(Or post the information back here and I can help)
-If you don't get audio, what codec does it use? GSpot also tells you this.
If you have the correct codec installed and the video still doesn't play
download GSpot (Above) and run your AVI though the program. If Gspot says
"Failed to render", "Missing Chuck", etc. then your video file is corrupt.
If you get this while try to play MPEG-2 video or a DVD then you will want
to do the following...
- Reinstall DirectX (Covers MPEG-1 decoding)
- Reinstall your DVD/MPEG-2 decoder
- Update your video card drivers
Some hardware-created ASF's will produce this error. The fix for that is at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;816044
In some cases people have run into this error when the wrong audio device is
selected in WMP.
- Tools>>Options>>Devices>>Speakers>>Properties will allow you to change it.
If you get the error while trying to play MIDI's please see
http://www.zachd.com/pss/pss.html#midi
Again, since this error means little to nothing if the above doesn't help
please provide more information in your post.
http://www.zachd.com/pss/pss.html#isolate will help you know what kind of
information will be helpful to your peer's so they can try and help.
