Indeo Video Playback

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Some of my video files are not working for want of Indeo Video Codec. I have
been working on a video convert tool as my last application. I do not know
what happened and this got corrupted. It gives pop up message for MS Encarta
Video files saying "The program you are trying to run requires a current
Indeo codec.To obtain a current driver that is compatible with this version
of Windows, please contact the manufacturer at http://indeo.ligos.com.". When
I check with them, they ask me to contact OS supplier.

I even tried system restore. It didn't work. Now what should I do? someone
pl. help me.

Hi Switch,
I have found a solution for this. It seems Intel Indeo codec has been made
it free until recently. Type Inel Indeo Codec Download and search in google.
You will get a solution for download. Update the corrupted file. It will be
OK. I heard some of the Real player supporters hack such files to promote
their codec and make you to 'BUY' .
