In Windows 98SE, I was previously able to view MP4 files on Windows Media Player 9 (AND Windows Media Player Classic!) with the K-Lite Codec Pack, but now WMP doesn't seem to understand or recognize the MP4 codec, even though it's been installed!
It does play the audio track just fine, though.
I don't understand. I've tried twice, when I had to reinstall the OS because of runaway file clusters (i.e. too many clusters, to Scandisk, just taking up space) or just bad video or audio installations:
1. Installing the Codec Pack First, then setting up WMP
2. Letting WMP set up before I installed the codec pack.
It doesn't make sense, because previously, it worked, being able to play MP4 files, at least once, regardless.
I tried using the WM9Codec installer, but I think that may be meant for Windows XP, because it throws up the "Missing export _____ is tied to ____, a device attached to the system is not functioning" error, when you use an installer meant for XP.
