chesterfield 0 Posted January 8, 2012 You could try ffdshow available here: http://www.dvd-guides.com/downloads/category/6-playerscodecs If it doesn't play the file directly try altering the file extension to avid, mp4 or even mkv. H264 is a codec standard that can be used within those file extensions so that could work. Hope that helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
