audio but no video

When I try to play a video all I get is the audio portion
with no video. I upgraded to win media 10 but problem
still persists?

Reinstall latest versiona of:

* your graphics card drivers
* DirectX runtime (full download; not webinstall)

and if these do not work, try installing Windows Media Encoder too.

I have the exact same problem. I tried both suggestions
but still have a dark screen where the video should be.
Any other ideas?

You (and JimCougar) are just missing the codec required to display the
video. Download and
install the ffdshow codec from he
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow/ Which ever media player you
decide to use will automatically locate and use this codec the next time
you try to play that video file.

Funny thing is: with me it is the other way round. I record films and they
run fine. After I have encoded them there is video but no audio... sometimes
the audio starts then stops. Any helpful websites or programs for this
problem?

Thanks!!

What apps are you suing to do the encoding, burning, playing?

.... thanks for the answer but unfortunately this does not solve my problem. I
had all the codecs. I am now working with Sorenson Squeeze which works
excellent and also with Ashampoo - also no problem with the audio output.

=============================================
Are you saying this occurs whern viewing online video?

If you have a slow internet connection that could be the problem...
Also high traffic on the movie site can cause issues.

And...if you have onboard graphics instead of a separate
graphics card that could slow things down.
