1-Make sure you have the right codecs.
2-Use VLC media player instead of Windows Media Player

it's not a codec issue, it seems the videos are in a, let's say, non-standard format. not a single player or video tool can handle them (mpc, wmp, qt, vdub, ...) except for vlc (well, and mplayer, but seeking doesn't seem to work there). wtf :rolleyes:

Howdy,

I dont see why I should need the VLC player.
The formats are .avi, .mp4 and .flv

I get the sound but no video from all players. Well except the .flv
which seems to be completely FUBAR.
I have not tried the VLC player BUT, anything should play
a friggen .avi file

Somethings fucked up.

Excuse me, but this seems to be the only thread I can find about video playback issues. I have a question and i do not know whether i should post here. Recently I recorded a gameplay video with Fraps and later found it was too big, (the video length is just 10 minutes but the output is near 2G).So I downloaded this software as you can see (http://www.videoconverterfactory.com/ti ... ideos.html) to help me compress Fraps videos. But after conversion, the original AVI file got converted into MP4 and I found there was some kind of quality loss and the frame rate also dropped a little. I want to know if you guys know any better parameter settings which can make it look better.

I didnt look at your converter program but either you missed a setting during conversion or it is "crippleware" and will only let you save it as mp4.
There are free softwares that will do what you want.

We do. One better parameter setting is choice of software, which can be changed to https://plays.tv/.
