Windows Media Player 12 will not play TiVo downloads, sound comes through but no video. I have installed K-lite codec pack, but no success. Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

There are two different codec packs for Windows 8.Pick witch one pertains to your computer.

Thank you also for your service.I imagine you are talking about the Gulf of Tonkin.
I was all over that country,from one end to the other.Now I am 100% disabled for serving my country in Vietnam.

I downloaded and tried the codecs, neither wmp 12 nor movie maker 12 will work in win 8. I also tried ms help forums and I was told that win 8 does not support wmp 12 nor live movie maker. I, of course can purchase an upgrade to win 8 pro for $99.99 from Microsoft and get full functionality. What a ripoff from Microsoft. I politely declined. Any other suggestions?
