avi files

I am hoping someone can shed some light on this problem with video playback. Video playback freezes after anywhere from 30 seconds to 15 minutes into a movie. This happens with AVI's as well as DVD's on hard drive. Never happens with streaming video such as Netflix. And, I haven't really...

sound playback slower then video and as it gets closer to end of the film it gets even slower. Imagine watching a 1.:30 mins movie. it begins OK and i notice that gradually sound starts to play slower then video so in the middle of film characters open mouth, say a word then close the mouth and...

When I use wmp or media center, the video is shown slightly earlier than the sound. Probably around half a second. Its nothing wrong with the files, they play perfectly in vlc. This goes for all .avi files, whether its backed up movies, or tv shows. You might say that this is not really a...

I've been using / trying to use the built in windows DVD maker to burn movies i've got (avi) to DVD. It works, takes it a while (just found a way to maybe speed it up) but i have one problem. I tell it to use 16:9 ratio in options, and the menu is in fact at 16:9. However the movie itself is...

I just installed windows 7 and everything installed perfectly and the drivers work well, i installed vlc player and im playing an avi file using vlc player and the windows them goes to windows 7 basic color scheme and there will be just sound, no video..its just a black screen and i even used...

I recently purchased a rather expensive DVD player that can play .avi files. However, I discovered that it will only play them after they have been burned to a DVD that has been Mastered formatted. This requires a new, unformatted disc. I use -RW discs. I have plenty of those -RW discs but they...

Hi All, here goes my problem. for the last one week am trying to delete a file from my desktop in vista. But the system is not able to do that. Apparently, it shows something like ' estimating the size of the file' and goes on like that(System shows this whenever we copy/delete things) The size...

Hello, Well over the last or so I have had some issues with Windows 7: "All Programs" not showing: I installed some games and they showed up until I restarted and they were gone with everything else. I have read about this bug and I don't seem to think anyone knows just why it is happening...

I just got Windows 7 today, and I really like it. One thing I noticed though is that it doesn't seem to boot faster than Vista, although many reviews said that it did. I did an upgrade from vista to windows 7, so my hard drive was not wiped. Everything loads pretty quickly except for when the PC...

So my video playback in any player under windows 7 is very grainy I've tried using the windows 7 drivers and attempted to use the windows vista drivers. I've tried VLC, WMC, wm11, powerdvd... Everything is the same.. Video plays back but you can see grain and it's distorted. Happens with...

Hello! I have a BIG problem, I am using Windows 7 right now, and I am unable to play any kind of video content in Windows Media Player 12. Now, this is a global problem in the whole OS, I installed GOM player, to view a FLV file, and the system freezes, totally, this happens too with the Windows...

OK so when I attempt to use any video player on an existing AVI file my system locks up and has to be rebooted. I have tried WMP, VLC (my preference) and KPS. They all react the same way, leads me to believe it is hardware and not a software issue, Is 1 gig of ram enough for this system to...

Hello, Nice to be on here - my first post! After many years of happy and accurate video editing on movie maker 2.1 (XP), I have migrated to Vista and now, when I advance back and forth along the timeline, the preview window jumps around. I.e. The video I am looking at does not correspond to...
