I have a video file called a.mpg I recorded on my camera. This file is
played correctly using Windows Media Player 10.0 on WinXP.
I tried to play this file in a Powerpoint program I created - but it
didn't play.
Searching the Web I found that Powerpoint uses mplay32.exe program to
play wideo and I need a codec for this program.
Using GSpot software it shows info about a.mpg file :
codec: MPEG2_Video, status : Codec(s) are Installed
But mplay32.exe refuses to play this file. Do I need a special
MPEG2_Video codec?
Other thing I don't understand:
Everest utility program shows under DirectX Video:
Supported FourCC codes:
I420
IMC1
.....
YVYU
What does it means? Those four letters are codecs?
Thanks,
Zalek
