In VirtualDub, when I try to use the Microsoft Windows Media Video 9
codec, I get this message:

"You have not installed the complete Microsoft Windows Media Video 9
VCM package in your system. In order to use this codec effectively,
please download the complete package from
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/codecs/vcm.aspx
The package includes help documentation and sample parameter files."

But on that page, or on the various linked pages I've tried, I cannot
find the actual download. Can someone tell me the link for it please?

Also, I'm a bit confused here, as I already thought I had this
installed, from the file WM9Codecs.exe.

Any help would be much appreciated please. In particular, where can I
actually download this 'VCM Package?

Hi Terry, 3 things ,, 1 try syst rest. 2 try roll back, 3 go for broke and
install wm 10, failing that ditch windows media and use real player or power
dvd (cyberlink)

Thanks all, very helpful. My apologies for not acknowledging much
earlier.

Duly re-installed the Microsoft Windows Media Video 9 codec and
pleased to report VirtualDub stopped protesting.
