Attempting to play it with Media Player Classic (K-Lite Codec Pack) only gave me a green square in the playback window: I noticed that the video came with a readme file, however; I found the following inside: This video has been encoded using the latest DivX+ software, if http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106188/can-a-rogue-wmv-file-hijack-windows-media-player you are having trouble playing this video please try windows media player Media Player should automatically update any out dated codecs Since the K-Lite Codec Pack is my media software of choice, I decided to visit their site to see if there was an upgrade available. Indeed, the latest version at the moment of writing was released on November 19th 2015 (the version I was using had been installed on my PC at the beginning of November because I'd bought a new hard drive and reinstalled the OS). I've downloaded and installed the update, but nothing changed, I still got the same green square. Now, this part I am ashamed of; instead of getting suspicious, I did what the file suggested, i.e. ran it in WMP, which indeed suggested that I download some codecs. I let it do it, typed the admin password because my account is a regular one, and then a few interesting things happened. UAC has been disabled without me doing anything; Windows showed a prompt telling me that I need to reboot to disable it, and when I checked the settings, it has indeed been turned off Opera Browser has been installed and a shortcut was put on my desktop NOD32, the AV I'm using, went crazy: tw

For the recoding process I'm using ffmpeg. I've already tried the msmpeg4v2 codec but the quality is horrible (compared to the original video you see windows media player large "blocks") so I'm looking for other codecs which work out of the box and have at least "ok" quality. Since comments indicated that it might not be the codec but a bitrate issue, here's the command I used: ffmpeg -i x.flv -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -acodec adpcm_ima_wav x.avi Output: Input #0, flv, from 'x.flv': Metadata: moovPosition : 39337765 avcprofile : 100 avclevel : 30 aacaot : 2 videoframerate : 25 audiochannels : 2 Duration: 00:06:19.52, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 836 kb/s Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High), yuv420p, 702x396 [SAR 2596:3679 DAR 354:283], 25 tbr, 1k tbn, 50 tbc Stream #0:1: Audio: aac, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16 w:702 h:396 pixfmt:yuv420p tb:1/1000000 sar:2596/3679 sws_param: Output #0, avi, to 'x.avi': Metadata: moovPosition : 39337765 avcprofile : 100 avclevel : 30 aacaot : 2 videoframerate : 25 audiochannels : 2 ISFT : Lavf53.32.100 Stream #0:0: Video: msmpeg4v2 (MP42 / 0x3234504D), yuv420p, 702x396 [SAR 2596:3679 DAR 354:283], q=2-31, 200 kb/s, 25 tbn, 25 tbc Stream #0:1: Audio: adpcm_ima_wav ([17][0][0][0] / 0x0011), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 384 kb/s Stream mapping: Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (h264 -> msmpeg4v2) Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (aac -> adpcm_ima_wav) Press [q] to stop, [?] for help frame= 9485 fps=436 q=31.0 Lsize= 31197kB time=00:06:19.48 bitrate= 673.5kbits/s video:12628kB audio:17913kB global headers:0kB muxing overhead 2.149820% ffmpeg codec video-codecs s

Play Windows Media files in Firefox with the Windows Media plugin If you've come to this article from a link on the Babylon toolbar and you'd like to get rid of it, see the How to remove the Babylon toolbar, home page and search engine article for instructions. To play Windows Media in Firefox, you need the Windows Media Player browser plugin installed. There are two different versions: The original, which is usually included with Windows up until XP. The new version, specifically developed for Windows XP and above, which is only available by download. This article describes how to check for and install the Windows Media Player Firefox plugin.Many Windows XP users will have the old plugin already, but it is recommended that you install the new plugin, anyway. Important: The new Windows 64-bit version of Firefox does not recognize or support this plugin. Note: Even if you already have Windows Media Player installed, you may still be missing the plugin required to play back Windows Media audio and video embedded in web pages. Mplayer is a popular Linux media player that can play back Windows Media files. In order to use Mplayer to play a Windows Media stream in Firefox, you must install two packages, named gnome-mplayer and gecko-mediaplayer. Your Linux distribution may have these packages readily available to install. Microsoft discontinued the Macintosh version of Windows Media Player in 2006. The Flip4Mac replacement added Windows Media playback capabilities to QuickTime and was distributed for free until May 1, 2014, when Telestream began charging for Flip4Mac Player. For more information, see this Telestream article. If you want a free player for many different media types, including Windows Media, you can try the VLC Media Player for Mac OS X. To play embedded audio and video content on web pages, you would need to download the VLC Web Browser plugin package (avail
