Can anyone tell me how to do this - I'm trying to play the avi files from my
pentax espio s4. WMP wont recognise them...have tried betaplayer but get a
codec mjpeg error...just want to view these files. Are there any other free
players out there that'll do the job?

Thanks

you should use the latest 'unstable' betaplayer with the mjpeg plugin from
http://forge.topcat.hu/frs/?group_id=5

probably there are non-free solutions too...

bye, Picard

What I do is convert my videos through Movie Maker 2 and render to PPC.
Works fine and videos are optimized for PPC as opposed to just loading a
video straight.
