I recently did a total systems restore to my PC due to a rather nasty virus I picked up. Trouble is, although all my WMVs and MPEGs work okay, I'm having trouble with most of my AVI files. Some work okay, but most are not being recognised by the computer. The player itself has sound but doesn't show a picture, whereas all my other programs such as Ulead Video Studio and Magix Movie Edit Pro show error messages like this:
"These files cannot be added to this project. These files may be of unknown file format"
"No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection"
None of the AVIs are being called AVIs by the computer anymore, even the ones that are working. Instead they're being called "Video Clips"????
I also noticed that Windows Media Player flashed up something about an error with codecs as it was attempting to start the clips. If it is a fault with codecs, can anyone help with finding the right codecs for the job?
Thanks. :)

Thanks a lot for that! One last thing, don't suppose you or anyone else knows the best program to use for decompiling RAR folders?

Thanks for that Zoid. After deleting all the memory on my computer it seems my own memory went the same way! LOL By the way, those codecs are far better than those I had before the memory wipe. Even my Roxio is recognising AVIs now, something it always refused to do before! Great stuff RandomPrecision!

Not always the case. VLC is a very good player, but there are a tiny percentage of files (usually .flv) that will play showing lines like jail bars on the whole screen.
That's why for quite some time now, I have both VLC and Media Player Classic Home Cinema with the same Codecs Pack that was recommended by RandomPrecision.
To further elaborate on this post since yesterday, another reason I have both players is that on rare occasions Media Player Classic might not play a file and VLC will play it with no problems.
In other words, they actually back each other up when one player might have trouble with a particular file. Only on a few occasions have I run into a file where either one won't play it. My assumption is that those files were probably corrupt.
