MP4 will not play video, just audio. Video on Windows Media Player

I am running PowerDVD 24. Some MP4 files will play with audio only, no video. They play fine on Windows Media Player. Is there a codec pack I need to install?

What codec are your mp4 files using? You can run it through https://mediaarea.net/MediaInfoOnline if not sure.

Jets 2011Thanks for the link. The file was captured from youtube using a RealPlayer downloader. Your link identified the codec as isom (isom/av01/iso2/mp41). Under Video format it said AV1.

Thomas Neitzel The way it was captured explains it, but I thought Powerdvd used Windows media player codecs, so not sure. You can now try just running it through Handbrake to use the H.264 codec and it will work.

Jets 2011 Handbrake fixed it. Thank you.
