rory 0 Posted February 24, 2007 check the advanced properties for the file and see what codec it is using .. also, you can use remote playback to open a local file and save as AVI or EXE .. and a very basic player i made for Geo, loads the Mpeg4 and Mpeg2 codecs .. I do need to update it .. soon. http://bahamassecurity.com/Geo/GeoPlayer.zip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
