Video codec problems

Potential problem: cannot open Kinect video in iPiStudio.

Possible cause: a broken Microsoft AVI Splitter installation.

One of the symptoms of this problem: unable to play Kinect video with Microsoft Media Player.

Usually this happens when users install third-party (non-Microsoft) video codecs.

At least a few users users reported this problem.

Solution:

1) For Windows XP - install (or re-install) Microsoft Media Player version 9.

2) For all platforms - the following command run with Admin rights should repair the default Microsoft AVI splitter installation:

regsvr32 quartz.dll

(On Windows7 use it like this: Start -> All programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt -> (right click and select "Run as administrator") -> regsvr32 quartz.dll).

We are working on a more reliable solution for this problem but it may take some time to implement.
