Hi there, I am new to burning dvd's, I have tried Nero and decided to use the software that came with my digital video camera. After uninstalling Nero all my Mpeg 4 files which I used to play with Media Player Classic before installing Nero(it changed them for the Nero Player) cannot be played. I get an error message in Media Player Classic saying 'cannot load any source filter'. It does annoy me that software programs mess up your system( I cannot get Nero Scout out of there), I am now using Roxio and getting that to work took some time as at first, it did not detect a drive(due to some remnant of Nero on my system) but they helped me with that. I guess I have to reinstall Media Player Classic(a very simple but effective program, and free!) but as I no longer have these video files on my memory card I want to be sure I do not mess things up any more. I stll can add/burn them with Roxio but I would like to get Media Player Classic working again. I hope someone can help. Thanks Andrew P.S. Can anybody can recommend a good MPEG 4 joiner?
When you uninstalled Nero, you uninstalled the Nero MP4 codec. You might be able to get everything working again by installing one of the K-Lite Codec Packs from http://www.codecs.com. The Mega Codec Pack has the latest MPC too. Install with mostly the default options unless you really think you need or don't need something. I don't of any "joiner" that actually works. Most of those things don't work at all or are spotty at best. Here's a list of editors though: http://www.videohelp.com/tools?s=108#108
