And if it's just using a codec that you don't have installed, then you can quickly grab the latest version, and hopefully fix your playback problems right away. If the file is broken - a missing video stream, say - then you'll see that immediately, and won't have to waste time tweaking your own system. Just open your audio or video file in MediaInfo, and you'll see lots of technical information about it: video and audio stream type, codec, aspect ratio, frames per second, sample rate and more. How about installing a new codec pack? Troubleshooting media problems is tricky, and you could spend hours trying to figure out the problem. Maybe using another media player would help. You could try downloading the file again, just in case it was corrupted. So it's particularly frustrating that it won't play. It is Open-Source software which means that end users and developers have freedom to study, to improve and to redistribute the program ( BSD-style license).It's taken a very long time, but you've finally found and downloaded that audio or video file you've been looking for.
