TS file problem

[_migz_]

i've never really had problems playing videos on my system thanks to the latest k lite mega codec packs but recently, i've been having problems playing this certain set of TS files that i recently downloaded. i love using windows media player and so i always make it a point to play videos there. my problem is: the ac3 audio plays (you can hear it playing), but you can't see the video at all. its like WMP treats the file just like an audio file (you can even turn on the visualizations lol ).
well, i have installed haali media splitter and made sure that it has ts support enabled. the haali tray icon even appears when i play the ts file so i assume haali is the splitter that is being used.

i even tried downloading some sample transport streams ("http://www.dododge.net/roku/hd-test-streams/football.ts") and they turn out to play perfectly.

its really bothering me that i can't play these files so any help will really be appreciated! please and thank you

try identifying what they are. use mediainfo in text mode and paste the results here.

The video is Microsoft VC1. WMP should be able to play that. Make sure the "Download codecs automatically" option is enabled.

ohhhhhhh aww man the option has always been checked hmmmm maybe there's a problem with the file?

[_migz_]

or maybe its my system? any suggestions?hmmm..

I know you want to use wmp but try playing it with mpchc or vlc. If they can't play it there might be something wrong with the file itself.
