Hello -
I've been using Media Player Classic for years.... it just works!
Lately I've been to sites that play M4v format and I look in view options on MPClassic and MPEG4 is selected - but yet I get an error telling me that media player classic could not render some of the pins in the graph you may not have the needed codecs or filters installed on the system.

So - where might one find the codecs needed? or is there a different issue all together?

Appreciate any help.
Thank you
George

You could install ffdshow and set it up to decode the videos in case.

The original post was way before Christmas, I think the fat dude in a red suit brought the OP a nice pack of codecs already...

Nah - He's not my uncle or my daddy... I don't think? :)
I had installed VLC which works BUT I'd much rather install the codecs for MPL.. Make it a one program stop -
