I get audio but no picture on playback

[Tizio]

You should just start the installation process and then after its completion start the video playback..
But if I recall correctly I had playback problems too with the TZ5 videos, but at this moment I can't make other tests because I converted to XviD AVIs all the videos I had (and also gained more or less the 90% of the file size at almost the same resolution), and the camera it's not mine but my father's
As soon as he makes another video I'll do other tests.. sorry..

I have done the installation of Quicktime alternative again and again. Every time I am trying to view a .mov video I still get no picture. Can someone, more expert(?) than myself, give me some help? After all I switched to BSplayer for its qualities. I find it extremely weird to use one of the best players without getting all of its benefits.

Anyone?

It is possible that the camcorder uses H264 compresion format. Install an x264 decoder, such as CoreAVC and I believe all the problems will go away.

LE: this camera records in M-JPEG format, so you just need an M-Jpeg decoder.http://www.free-codecs.com/download_soft.php?d=56&s=54

I tried CoreAVC, 3ivx, K-lite full pack, ffdshow mpeg-4, kmplayer; nothing seems to work. Looks as if I am not doing something right. Can you please:
1. Guide me through the video setting in BSplayer pro preferences? Should I highlight any filters in options?
2. Recommend a program from http://www.free-codecs.com/download_soft.php?d=56&s=54

PS1. For the moment I am using Quicktime player to view those videos, but what is the point if I can't use BSplayer pro?
PS2. When I try to play a .mov video the BSplayer indicates "Audio file" under the screen counter. Shouldn't it indicate "Video file" instead?

"PS2. When I try to play a .mov video the BSplayer indicates "Audio file" under the screen counter. Shouldn't it indicate "Video file" instead?"
This means BS.Player detects file as audio only - can you please give us any small sample of these video files?
