| | Re: Problems PLaying videos from a camera in windows media player I recently imported all of my pictures and videos from my digital cameral from my SanDisk. I am able to view all of my pictures, but none of my videos. It continues to say error because of the file extension. I have tried changing the extension to the acceptable extension listed my windows media player and none of them will work. How can I play my videos? |

| | Re: Problems PLaying videos from a camera in windows media player Changing the file extension doesn't actually produce any useful benefit. That's like slapping a "VW Beetle" on your tank. It might be labeled differently, but it's still the same thing it used to be. =) What's the (original) file extension? -- Speaking for myself only.
