It may be due to damaged video files. When Windows Media Player only has no image in the sound, you should first check if the video file is damaged or not. Also, graphics card damage and lack of proper video codec should be considered.

Your media player might be having problems getting the video feed from the USB. try copying the file to your local disk and play the movie from there.

Most probably you lack the codecs which are necessary for your media player to play the movies.

try the following links:

http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/XP_Codec_Pack.htm

sometimes you may require different codecs, it's a matter of downloading these codecs and see what happens... also, I would advise you to save the movies on your computer before playing them in media player.

Using usb stick

First you will have either copy and pate the movie or download it to your usb drive

One of the benefits of putting files on a USB flash drive is that you can make any type of file portable.


This includes not only documents, spreadsheets and photos, but also media like video clips and movies.


If you have movies saved on your flash drive that you want to view, watching the movies directly from the USB drive is a simple process and can be achieved on almost any computer.


Connect your USB drive to the device on which you want to watch your movies.

This includes all USB-compatible computers, as well as some select television-compatible devices (like the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 or Sony Media Extender).


Launch the file explorer application on your device.

In Windows, access this utility by accessing the "Computer" application and then double-clicking the USB drive to display the files.


If you are trying to watch the movie files on a compatible television device, look for a "media," "device" or "USB input" application or button to bring up the file explorer.


Select the movie file you want to play.

In Windows, do this by double-clicking on the file.


The appropriate media-handling program should automatically launch and begin playing the movie automatically.


If you are using a television device, select the file from the list of compatible files in the device's internal explorer system.


hope this helps

Everio movie editing

First check sound settings on control panel, ensure volume is not at minimum and computer audio is not muted. Test playing a CD.

this is usually due to Media Player or whatever player you use on your pc, not having the right codecs to decompress sound from camera file.

Usually you sort it out upgrading media player, you can download update from links below.


  1. Windows Media Player 10
  2. Cumulative update for Windows Media Player 11 in Windows Vista

I have a Brand New LG Portable Super Multi Drive DVD RW. Although I can get a Visual when I play DVD movies, I am unable to get an Audio. Please advise.

One of 2 things

a) Check your PC sound settings, make sure your CD/DVD drive O/P is included.

b) Your media player doesn't have the right codecs. Go to filehippo.com download and install VLC media player. Should work a treat.

Does oil tycoon runs on windows 7

If you're referring to the Global Star version of Oil Tycoon, then yes it does work. When installing, do not install DirectX Media as the movies play fine. I wasn't able to get the music working, but I don't play it anyway.
You'll have to change the compatibility settings to the following:
Run as Windows Xp (Service Pack 2) Disable Visual Themes Disable Desktop Composition
Good luck!

No sound when i download to windows movie maker-S630

I have the same problem with playing videos from my Samsung Digimax S600 on Windows Vista. The audio plays fine on the camera, but not in Windows Media Player. The only solution I've found is to play the videos in Quicktime...then the sound works just fine. Hope this helps.
