    Videos on itunes coming up as a bunch of colors
    « on: May 07, 2007, 02:38:59 PM »
    I've fixed my sound issue and my route rissue, thanks everyone. But now when I play my videos I get a bunch of wild colors. It's on the videos bought from itunes and the ones that weren't. I'm running XP Pro.

    What settings have you changed recently?

    What Antivirus protection do you have installed?
    EDIT: And is it only iTunes?

      I reinstalled the drivers for the Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 and now I have the videos. But the songs play but the images change every 2-3 seconds it never used to do this. I have Macafee firewall, running XP, recently installed a cd/dvd writer and added Office.

      Sounds like a codecs related problem

      Have you tried a video player, besides iTunes?

      Did the problem begin before or after the Video Drivers update?

        It seems to be just happenning with the itunes videos. Noticed it after the driver update because before there was nothing. Previously itunes had been working fine.

            It says there was not a driver to roll back to?

            sounds a bit like DRM protected wmv files when you don't have the license.
