| I have an mpeg file that won't play in Winamp, VideoLAN or WMP.
Here are the file details. What codec do I need and where do I find it please for my platform? Format : CDXA/MPEG-PS Length : 789 MiB Video #0 : MPEG Video at 1 750 Kbps Aspect : 352 x 288 (1.304) at 25.000 fps Audio #0 : MPEG Audio at 224 Kbps Infos : 2 channels, 44.1 KHz | ||

| Looks like a "xvcd" in vcd dat format. Try use the old vcdgear and convert it to a standard mpg.
Or try play using media player classic or smplayer. | ||

| Try to load the file into GSpot and it will tell you which codec you need. | ||

| Thanks guys...just to see what my system has installed I loaded up GSpot and it indicates my file is encoded with MPEG-1 Layer 2 and that the codec is, in fact, installed. Is it because it's a VCD that it won't play? I'll take the advice and try the conversion to MPEG and see if that helps. | ||
