Okay, for some reason I can't watch videos like this one and others in that format I have to use asf stream to record them. I right click and then click "error details" and it says "Windows Media Player encountered an unknown error. This can occur when another program or operating system component encounters a problem but does not communicate the nature of the problem to the Player."

I have Windows Media Player 10.

It's a WMV file.
It SHOULD play OK without any additional codec. :confused:

Probably a setting in IE that needs enabled.

IE: Tools, advanced, multimedia, play videos in web pages.
