Windows Media Player problems
I am having some problems using MediaLab to play Windows Media Player files. I am using the "Movie" Item type to play several video files followed by questions. However playback of these files seems to be unreliable. Sometimes the video is shown correctly, but often the player starts but then the video cuts out and only a black screen is displayed.
I have testing WMP separately and it works fine, it seems to only be a problem when the video is being played via the MediaLab program.
Would you have any suggestions?
Thank you.
Movies (.mov & .mpg) in Direct RT & Media lab
I have this problem that I can hear my movies but not see them.
We have used these movies before, but now they won't work.
When we play the movie in direct rt it's just one black screen with only sound. In Medialab it's a small screen without vision, but there is audio.
When we just run the movies in Mediaplayer separate of your software, they work fine.
In Direct RT we have used _d:\name of file.mpg (1024x768) in a stim list with position 0,0,1.
Can anyone tell me why this is not working.
OUr regional settings are ok (US) and we have Windows XP plus the movie file is in the same folder as the dierct rt file.......
Thanks!
Inconsistency with AVI files
1) I created several AVI files using Blaze Media Pro editor and used the XVID mpeg codec.
2) I installed the experiment on 8 computers and it worked perfectly.
3) I moved the experiment to a new 8 computers and the video works on all of them but the full screen only on 3.
4) XVID codec is installed on all these computers.
5) Initially when I installed the experiment Symantec antivirus software was interrupting the videos.
6) They play but not in full screen now, even after I have disabled symantec completely.
7) I am using the movie option, I get sound, enhanced video is off.
8) We are using MediaLab 2006.
How can I approach this?
