Quite possibly, you don't have a correct CODEC. Try this:\nConnect to the internet and try to play the file again. If an error message comes up, click on Web Help. Quite possibly, you'll be taken to this page http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/codecs.aspx\nYou should be able to download the correct codec from there.\nHope that helps you out.

This is a limitation of the Server from where you are downloading the video. There's not much you can do about it if your connection is known good.

Clicked your link, sent me to FOX, The vid window started to "buffer" and it took for ever, but the 24 clip played fine here. I did not use or open media player to do it though, I just clicked on their player.

It sounds like you are playing a file the protected, and you need purchase a license before you can play it.  Try to a play another media file from your computer and see if it works.

You don't have the correct type of video codec that is required to play that video file. You can have many codecs on your computer, you just are missing the one you need for the video file you're trying to play. that's it. \nTo find the codec of the video file (try right-clicking on the file), then google for the specific video codec for the windows platform (if that's your computer is, as Windows Media player exists for the mac as well)

From the Yahoo help pages:\n\nThere are several reasons why you may not be able to view the video content streaming from our servers. They are included below, with the most common causes listed first.\n\nYou may be attempting to watch the material at a higher bandwidth than your Internet connection currently supports. To test this, try selecting a lower speed from the right pull-down menu in the bottom-right corner of the embedded video playback window. If you are experiencing this problem during the initial video test and are connecting to our service at a bandwidth of 56K or higher, this would not be the cause as this test video is streamed at the lowest bandwidth setting. If you are connecting to our service at a speed lower than 56K, then unfortunately it will not be possible to access our music video material.\n\nAnother possible cause may be that you do not have the Windows Media Player 9 codec installed on your system. This would be the cause only if you are using the 6.4 or 7 versions of the Windows Media Player. Download the Windows Media Player 9 codec. \n\nA third reason may be the bandwidth-detection settings in your Windows Media Player. This can be a problem if you have an Internet connection that has a higher download speed than upload speed (such as cable or ADSL). If this is the case, you can correct it by manually setting the speed within the application. \n\nTo change the speed at which the Windows Media Player attempts to download content, please follow these steps: \nStart Windows Media Player. \nOn the Tools menu, select "Options." \nClick the "Performance" tab. \nIn the "My connection speed is" box, choose the appropriate setting. You should set this speed to match the speed of your Internet connection. \nClick "OK."\nThe last reason may be that your Windows Media Player is not currently set as the default application for video streaming. This can occur if you install another application and allow it to 'claim' these file type associations. To correct this, follow these steps: \n\nStart Windows Media Player. \nOn the Tools menu, select "Options." \nClick the "File Types" tab. \nIn this area, ensure that the "Windows Media," "Windows Media Audio," and "Windows Media Video" file types are selected. \nClick "OK."

You need to reconstruct the videos PROVIDING THEY ARE LEGAL AND NOT VIOLATING ANY COPYRIGHT LAWS. You cannot play just a Info file.....\nTry using the DIVX player for the Mpg4 vids...\nhttp://www.divx.com this will also install the DIVX codec with your windows mediaplayer.

looks like your machine doesn;t have space to run video, even when you wath the video it makes a temparay files in your system, so first you make space some space in your system and then try to see the videos. \nGoto\nTool<Options>General>\nDelete cookies\nDelete files\nClear history\n\nmove all your peronal data(songs,docs,games..) to non windows partition.

Depends on the verison of Windows Media player that you have.\nYou can always install "Quicktime" to play MP4 files.\nI'm listening to one now.\n\nHere is the page where you can get the installer-\nhttp://www.apple.com/quicktime/technologies/mpeg4/\n\nmessage me if you have any questions.

Well, you cant actually “view” audio files but downloading and installing quicktime is a sure fire way to take care of this issue. It will play audio and video in almost any format.

Have you tried watching it in a different media player?  Depending on the file type, some players are better than others.  \n\nIt also sounds like a resource issue. I don't know how much memory your pc has, but try closing down any background (resource-hungry) applications.

If u have all the right codecs it could be   that your video player is broken....try using another player like mplayer..u can get it from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html  if  that doesn't work,maybe your video card is broken,and you should replace it...but sometimes,it just that Windows it's working badly  a nd  you need   to reinstall it

It's quite unlikely that a firewall is the problem, seeing as you can hear the audio, but just can't see the video. It's possible that you're missing the video codec that was used to create the video, or you could be missing the plug-in or player that the video was created for (like Quicktime, RealPlayer, Flash Player, or Shockwave Player).\n\nWhen it comes to codecs, there are TONS of them out there, and honestly, I still have issues with video codecs on occasion. Oddly, one of the most widely used codecs, Indeo, isn't included with Windows Media Player. Neither is DivX. There's a bunch more out there as well, but installing those 2 should get you rolling. Links to Indeo and DivX are included below.\n\nYou may also want to install other players, like Quicktime\nhttp://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html\nJust be certain to get the standalone install, and un-check the "I'd like to receive free offers" & crap boxes. You may also use a false email address (I do all the time).\n\nShockwave Player is another one you might want to install.\nhttp://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/\n\nWhile there on Adobe's website, you may want to reinstall Flash Player.\nhttp://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BIOW\n\nFinally, another media player is RealPlayer. It's sometimes required for streaming audio and video on some websites. You can find it at http://www.real.com . Look for the FREE player, and download the Basic version, not any of the ones you have to pay for, or trial versions.\n\nI hope this helps.
