Default bsplayer won't open .wmv files

Hi,

I recently had troubles with my video playing software, and in the process of finding out what was wrong, I screwed up a couple things. It seems they're mostly back to normal, now, except for one thing. My BSPlayer won't open .wmv file. It says "can't open file." and the files work just fine & dandy in other video playing programs (wmp, classic media player, winamp, etc). I'd just rather use BSplayer for everything, so if anyone has an idea...

Moah, platypus powaaa!

Thanks, I tried but it didn't fix my problem. WMV files can still be played by the WMP but cannot be played by BSPlayer.

PS: Guests can create new topics but can't reply? :shock:

Thanks again, but that didn't help either. I don't think it's a Codec problem, i have installed the ace codec pack, and after all the file plays ok in the windows media player, for example.

Check which codec's WMP use in File > properties.
