My JVC digital camcorder can save "email" sized video clips to the SD card so
they can be emailed for viewing. I can't get WMP to open these. WMP says I
need a codec and gives me this message.

You've encountered error message C00D10D1 while using Windows Media Player.
The following information might help you troubleshoot the issue.

Codec is missing
Windows Media Player cannot play the file (or cannot play either the audio
or video portion of the file) because the Microsoft ISO MPEG-4 Video v1.0
(MP4S) codec is not installed on your computer.

The missing codec might be available to download from the Internet. To
search for the Microsoft ISO MPEG-4 Video v1.0 (MP4S) codec, see
WMPlugins.com.

WMplugins.com doesn't have a download file for 11.0 on it. I have installed
several codecs (G.726, etc) and even tried to open them with VLC.

I can hear the sound but no video when I open the file with VLC.

I used AVIcodec which tells me the following information about the file.

File : 86 KB (0.00 B), duration: 0:00:00, type: ASF, 1 audio
stream(s), quality: 2 %, ,

Video : 0.00 B, 144 Kbps, 0.0 fps, 160*120 (4:3), MP4S = ISO MPEG-4
Video V1, Supported

Audio : 0.00 B, 16 Kbps, 8000 Hz, 1 channels, 0x45 = G.726, , ,
Supported

I have searched the web and this site and don't see a solution. JVC hasn't
supplied me with the answer either.

Can any tell me how to get the proper video codec needed?
