G-Series Gaming Keyboards

I can't get my G19 movie player to play any of the divx or xvid encoded .avi files I have (which play fine in windows media player) or any of the 100s od mp4 encoded movies I have (ripped for iphone viewing).   I have reinstalled my trusty codec packs after the G19 software install and still no dice... how can I get this working? I was really looking forward to using the LCD for watching movies while I have my main screen for work.

Try CCCP as your *only* codec pack, or use VLC as your media player with Okio's video output module.

thanks man!  cccp worked great.  awesomeness.

Glad to hear it worked!

the screen looks really nice for it's size.... animated stuff looks awesome and other movies look good as well..  better than expected!

Well... I finally installed windows 7 64bit and now I can't get any mp4 files to play on my G19 movie viewer... I have tried the cccp, k-lite codec pack 64bit and a few other things..  just get the message about codecs missing... maybe I need to install something in administrator mode or something?  any ideas?

The VLC plugin still works in 7...

I guess I will have to go that route?  it's not as convenient.. hmmm..  this should work.. it worked fine with XP.. it's like the G19 software has some broken association... I am too tired to work more on it tonight... I'll hack at it again later.. thanks for the speedly reply also.

FIXT!    I uninstalled cccp and installed Shark007 win7 codec pack and under the mp4 tab, I forced mp4 playback to use "Haali splitter" and bingo, it worked.  whew.

well... it's not fixed... after one reboot it's back to saying codecs are missing.. wth??  *sigh*  I mean, the codecs are there... why the movie player can't find them suddenly is frustrating..
