yep, and quicktime standard (ie: free) on my work pc and quicktime pro on my home pc.

i guess its just a case of it using recent codecs. so any newer version of of the bigger media playback apps shoudl be fine :?

I've got Windows XP and Media player 10 (when I tried to upgrade I knew that I've got already the most recent version). I downloaded the last free version of Real player as well. Still no result, only sound. Really strange :?

I am in the same situation as our northern members above. :? All updated and automatic updates where possible. The audio for Vision Thing sounds good, though.

Bum, the link has died. VT I've downloaded and can play just fine with WMP, I was just about to do Top Nite Out. Anyone know another link? Bum.

Odd. Vision thing works but snub nose doesn't seem to. Give me a second...


...Edit: I appear to have spazzed on the upload. New FTP client I haven't got my head round properly yet. My bad :oops:

It should work now.

CURSES CURSES CURSES!!!

I have now downloaded all available updates for RealPlayer 10.5, Media Player 10 and QuickTime 6.5.2. And still no joy with Vision Thing :evil: :cry:

Media Player happily plays the audio but no video, RealPlayer tells me "the video for this file cannot be played" and that "there is no software update available to play this content" and QuickTime tells me that "a necessary data reference could not be resolved". If 3 up-to-date applications are refusing to play this, I can only assume the problem lies elsewhere on my PC. Any ideas?

Cheers Mark :notworthy: snubnose works fine.

AndrewS - god knows how WMP works, VT runs fine on it for me, BUT I've been sent many a clip / song with the warm words 'works on MP' only for it to do no such thing. :? Bloody Microsoft. :evil:

I'd try installing DivX (perhaps even the player) and BSPlayer...
