Missing codec

W98se Media Player 7.1

I have been sent an avi file which plays in audio only. When I run it media player attempts to download a codec without success. I have tried various cookie settings but this seems to have no effect. I have also downloaded the latest codec set from the microsoft site. The codec seems to be VIDS:div4 - can anyone suggest a source for this and tell me how/where to instal it

Hi there,

you could do alot worse than get the codec pack here http://w1.131.telia.com/~u13112030/Nimo50Build8.zip which contains a lot of differing codecs and should contain the one you are looking for

Hope this helps!
