Question
Cheetah Hammerer
my inworld video used to work just fine and still does - for everyone but me - anyone want to help change that?
i've been trying to fix this for quite some time, i'll search youtube, via the TV's menu and play a video and the result is sound but no video and the media texture turns gray and stays that way well into 20+ minutes, it also sometimes produces an error saying "no mime type set for the media type none/none"" but not all videos do this, sound works in all videos though for whatever it's worth without the video.
i've been trying process of elimination to figure out what the problem is, but it's quite slowly going nowhere, list of things i've tried so far with the result;
1. uninstalling and reinstalling both quicktime and itunes as well as bonjour - no change.
2. telling quicktime to update itself - no change there either; claims up to date.
3. setting quicktime to all possible defaults via the windows vista "set program defaults" interfance - no change as well (seeing a pattern yet?)
4. uninstalling all codec packs previously installed on the computer - still no change, unless you count windows not being able to play roughly 80% of my hard drive stored videos.
5. replacing previous codec pack a different one in hopes that would help - still no change. (had CCCP codec pack before, also tried k-lite codec pack) (both from free-codecs.com)
6. reinstalling vista entirely and formatting the hard drive (needed it anyway, was almost full and lots of bloat) - it worked for nearly two weeks before reproducing the exact same problem.
7. additionally, i've been trying to do some research on my own to find out if it's a missing protocol or file extension (few leads, set quicktime protocol "RSTP" back to quicktime) - still no change.
8. (inworld attempt) SL menu "advanced" -> media -> "reload MIME types" - no noticable change at all in any way.
the TV works perfectly fine for everyone else, just not me and even then just no video, i'm suspecting it may be a codec pack, but then again even uninstalling them entirely has no effect what so ever and doesn't fix the problem and further breaks local video playback.
i'm honestly at my wits end here with this problem, any help?
reinstalling vista isn't really an option i want to pursue again - unless you have an 8GB or larger USB drive you want to let me borrow, so please don't waste my time and yours suggesting that unless it's to tell me the package is in the mail
also, i doubt anyone at LL will read this, or care, but couldn't we at least have an alternative player to handle this type of stuff?
surely quicktime is the "industry leader" because of iphone but, why not broaden our horizons here anyway?
thanks for the help and replies!!
