I'm having pretty much the same problem,
Error id: COOD1199
Msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the file, the player may not
support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to
compress the file.
I use WMP 10 on a Windows XP home edition
I was trying to open a downloaded video. It is an "alz" file

I'd be really grateful if someone could help me with this, plz.
