Finished avi files will play in Media Player 9 but not in 10. As far as i can figure Microsoft's update pages will not let me revert to 9 after I have installed 10. When I try to play avi files in Media Player 10 I get an error
message: "One or more codecs that are needed to play the file are missing." They played on a friends computer who had only Player9.
1. Where do I get the missing codecs? OR:
2. Where can I get Windows Media Player 9? OR:
3. When will FantaMorph update the program to play in Media Player 10?
avi files & Windows Media Player 10....
It seems you should submit this problem to Microsoft.
Our AVI export process is very standard, so we don't know why Media Player 10 can't play your AVI files but Media Player 9 can.
I suggest you choose the "Full Frames (Uncompressed)" codec when export AVI files. I'm now also using Media Player 10, and all the exported AVI files can be played perfectly.

webwiz4u,
We're confused why you can't play the uncompressed AVI because uncompressed AVI is such a simple and standard format.
Please open a sample project by choosing the File/Open Samples menu, export it, try to play it on your machine.
If it is still not working, please email the AVI file to us.
Also, please download some other players such as QuickTime or RealPlayer and make a tryout.
