Windows Media Player pixelated

[Wally]

I have the same problem describe here :

Windows 10 Windows Media Player 12 AVI playback pixelated

Edit [May 18, 2016]: The default MPEG-4 H.263 codecs shipped with Windows 10(and possibly Windows 8) Windows Media Player 12 are faulty on NVIDIA cards and cause pixelation. Use the 32-bit version of

answers.microsoft.com

I also tried to install CCCP filters but nothing changed

Do videos play normally using other media players (VLC for example)?

 

[Wally]

Yes, I tried with DivX Player, the video is normal compared to Windows media player.

Instead of it I installed K-Lite Codec Pack, now it seems good

Basic advice, never use WMP, it doesn’t natively support many formats and pretty much all codec packs are riddled with viruses including k-lite.

Avoid at all costs. Use VLC or Plex.

Thank you for the advice, I already noticed K-Lite blocked the internet connection on Firefox just after I installed it and reboot windows! Ok, for Plex, I'm going to try it!

Just a biased opinion and some info:

Plex is a media server, install the Plex server on the host that contains the media files, point Plex to these folders, it will categorise them, attach thumbnails and clips, link all data about actors and directors etc, then you can set up access from almost any device including smart tv’s, tv streamers like amazon or appletv, any mobile device, and platform.

It’s hands down the greatest piece of consumer software that’s hit in the last 20 years!
