For a couple of days, the file worked perfectly on whatever player.
One day I noticed, however, that Windows Media Player wouldn't start
playing the file and complained that it couldn't _find_ it, which I
find an incomprehensible reason, as the clip was on my hard disk in a
specific location.
I tried to play the file with the DivX Player, which worked except
that I couldn't hear any sound. I checked the file with GSpot to
notice that the DVD_LPCM_AUDIO codec had not been installed. This is
impossible because the file indeed did work very well before, and I
had not touched any codec or the file itself in between.
I downloaded and installed some codec packs, and now, according to
GSpot, the correct audio codec is installed. However, I still can't
hear any sound on the clip. This isn't because I've forgotten to turn
the volume up or anything.
It seems to me that pictures and audio files don't cause much problems
these days, but video is still a pain where the sun doesn't shine.
