WMV setting stopped working!

My WMV video setting, ex. brightness, color etc. do not work.
The slide bars are there to change them but they do nothing when you move
them.

What would caues this and how can I get them working again.

Thanks

Re: WMV setting stopped working!


Did you install a third party codec that might be overriding the built-in
WMV decoder?

Thanks for responding.

I do not think I installed any codec. Do you have one in mind so I can check
it?

I will check that web page and see if any help is available.

Thanks

Nothing offhand. But there's a lot of random and bad software out there, so
I wouldn't know where to start. =\

What are the results of WMP's Help:About:Technical Support Information menu
tool?
