Have you ever seen a video turn the entire screen funky colors?

    I'vehad problems with the videos turning green, but never before has it turned the entire screen these really funky colors. Looks like some effect out of a graphics editor.

    When I stopped the video the screen returned.

    Unfortunately, a screenshot didn't work. It came out normal-looking. :cry

    Hi

    Likely you are missing the proper or updated codec to play the video, uninstall any old codec packs you may have and try this Vista Codec Pack (works with XP too)

    Personally, I use K-Lite. Can't remember if it's standard or full.

    I know the codec for that specific video is Xvid as I created the AVI myself.

    It's very rare when soemthing like this happens and it's more of a hilarious nuisance than a problem.
