Windows Forum / Windows Media / Player / May 2008Upside down video image...
I have just downloaded WMP11 and attempted to view a video file with .avi extension. When the video launches, the image is upside down and backwards, the audio is fine. What could be the reason for this? Any and all help is sincerely appreciated. Thanks! >I have just downloaded WMP11 and attempted to view a video file with .avi >extension.

What codec does the GSpot program say the AVI file uses ? http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ HTH Cheers - Neil ------------------------------------------------ Digital Media MVP : 2004-2007 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/mvpfaqs Hey Neil, Thanks so much for your help. I downloaded the GSpot program and discovered that the file uses the Div 3 Codec, Name: DivX 3 Low-motion. Status: Codec(s) are installed. Under "Proposed Codec Solutions and Tests" I clicked on "1" under "Vid". A message said click on "2" for help. This resulted in a message that says: "Failed to connect Output pin 0x009a717c ("Src Media") on *.avi to input pin 0x009aa0e4 ("stream") on filter 0x01fc2b1c ("DivX Demux").ConnectDirect() failed. Error: 0x80040207: (unknown) All of which is meaningless to me. If you can interpret the above I would be very grateful. Thanks again!! > >I have just downloaded WMP11 and attempted to view a video file with .avi > >extension.

Just install the DivX 6 decoder and you should be running with backward compatibility to DivX 3 I think : http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/codec/ HTH Cheers - Neil >Hey Neil, >Thanks so much for your help.

I downloaded and installed the DivX 6 Codec, it was bundled with DivX Player and DivX Encoder (a trial version). anywa, I was able to open the file properly using the DivX Player and the Core Media Player. But the video is still upside down when I use Windows Media Player or Winamp. Should I uninstall WMP completely and then reinstall WMP 11?

ZachD's site has instructions on reducing the video card acceleration settings http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#vdriver If that helps, it would be worth going to the website of your video card manufacturer, and getting the absolute newest drivers, where this problem may have already been resolved.

I followed these instructions: Open WMP's Tools:Options:Performance:Advanced menu dialog. First try turning off overlays, and then if that does not help, turn off the Video Mixing Renderer. That did the trick. Thanks again. > Ah, you didn't say.
