Title: Video Software Help Req
Post by Mr Skrunts on 10. Apr 2011 at 11:39

Am stuggling to find a good video player for certain files on my PC.

I was playing a lot of FLV files and have a good FLV Player. Then the files were getting conerted to MP4, but non of my cerrent software plays them. Then bought a new HD vid cam, copied the 1ft few vids from the camcorger to the PC to watch them and had to download a file to play them, which just happened to be the Fox Tab FLV player that I have tried before and fails.

The best so far had been Final Media player, but plays about 5 frames and locks up.

Any advice on a decent palyer for all these formats would be appreciated. (FLV, MTS and MP4)

TIA. :y

Wait till you try to burn HD content to either a DVD or Blu Ray. THAT'S where the fun really starts ?
