Check K-Lite codecs in MEDIA listings, mark them, then download and install. Some apps already use built-in codecs, but for others, a codec pack is best. Drivers aren't the problem—codecs are needed to play specific video formats.
You're seeing the music icon in Windows Media Player. It's a standard feature for playing audio files.
Without any codecs, you'll only hear audio—Windows already includes these built-in codecs. After installing the K-lite codecs, you can easily drag and drop your video into any player and it should function perfectly. Oh, come on, I guess you meant that. /When you have the Ninites file, run it.
If you need... you can upload your saved file again and it should function properly. I don’t rely on WindowsMediaPlayer; if that fails, create a thread asking "How to enable Codecs in WMP." I’ve downloaded and installed K-lite but WMP still can’t play video frames, even with codecs enabled. Someone familiar with the system might resolve this now. I mainly use WMP Classic and haven’t used WMP since Windows XP, though the steps for adding codecs are consistent.
