    Whenever sites have embedded streaming video that use the mediaplayer active-x contol, the audio works but the video always looks like this:

    I've gone through many things to try and resolve this:
    re-installed mediaplaer 10
    re-installed codecs from MS
    re-installed divx and xvid codecs

    This effects ALL video that use the mediaplayer control.

    If I can download the file it plays fine using the standalone player. But some sites make it a pain to download.

    Any ideas?

    When you re-insatlled media player, did you uninstall first?

    Had a simalair problem earlier on a friends PC, uninstalled, downloaded and installed WMP11 and it worked a treat.

    Didn't work until I uninstalled first though.
