can't play avi-files in windows media player or in xbox

Hi Mavagle,

Windows Media Player and Xbox support AVI files. With the problem you've encountered, there could be changes on your computer or could be unsupported contents on the AVI files that may have caused your Windows Media Player and Xbox to stop play those files.

For us to verify this, we would like to know the following:

• Were there any changes performed on your computer prior to the issue?
• What version of Windows Media Player do you have?
• Have you set Windows Media Player as the default app for your AVI files?

In the meantime, please check the current version of your Windows Media Player. See this
link for the steps. Check also if Windows Media Player was set as the default apps to open media
files. Follow these steps:

• Open Settings, then click System.
• In the left pane, click Defaults apps, then click Choose default apps by file type.
• Under the Name column, scroll down to AVI File, then select
  Windows Media Player as the default app for it.
• Once done, check if you're now able to play AVI files.

You may also see
File types supported by Windows Media Player for more information.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Regards.

 

Windows Media Player and Movie Maker crash on AVI files

Hi guys,
I have an issue with Windows Media Player (again). I am using Windows 10 64 bit with all updates installed and I am using the 64 bit version of Media Player.
I have a number of AVI files, which I have recorded. According to ffmpeg, the AVI container contains the following streams:

When I try playing this file, Windows Media Player crashes after around 11 seconds and I can only close it. Some time ago, avis could still be played correctly - and I believe even the files now affected could be played just fine.

I have several AVIs, which I recorded in the same way from the same source. Many of them are affected, but the exact point into the file where it crashes always is a few seconds different: Sometimes it is after 8 seconds, sometimes after 12.

Also Windows Movie Maker is crashing on these files. This is the main issue for me as I want to edit the files with Movie Maker, but I cannot, because it crashes when it reaches a certain point inside the file.

When I try playing any of these files in VLC Player, they play back without problems.

And here comes the thing: I tried the same file on another PC, also with Windows 10 64 bits - and Media Player is playing the files just nicely!

So is this now an issue with the file? Or is there something wrong with some codeces?

How can I fix this issue?

(I don't think I need anything special for what I am using the PC for. Can I maybe reset something to a default and then it is working again?)

Using adobe premiere CS6, never had problems with this until today. No specific error message, it just says it is not able to play the AVI-file, neither from windows media player or in xbox.
