Windows bad image in Vista playing wmv file error with Acro8professional

I have created a multimedia file with movieclips and audio. The file plays perfectly on XP2 and XP3 machines. However I have one Vista machine which reports a bad image error when clicking the play button for the movie. This error will display after three attempts after which the file will play without problem. The file embedded in Acrobat 8 is a WMV file.
The error message is as follows: Exception processing image
0xc000007b parameters 0x75AD023C 0x75AD023C 0x75AD023C 0x75AD023C
The vista laptop is the one we use to demo files so it would be great to establish what the problem is. Do not have access to another vista machine to compare.
Many thanks

i had a similar issue. don't know what was the reason but the latest update fixed it.

    I tried the 8.1.2. upgrade but for some reason it made no difference...however installing Acrobat 9 Reader helped and cleared the error. This is a little disturbing because companies are not as ready to install updates (some are still using Acro 5) so it is difficult to acertain what the receiver is seeing. But yes 9 fixed the problem.

  • HT3775 why can't i play .wmv file in quicktime even after i download codec from windows? can anyone help me wit this please!!!!!

    why can't i play .wmv file in quicktime even after i download codec from windows? can anyone help me wit this please!!!!!

    Have you done the obvious things to try to fix it: quit Quicktime then start it back up again, log out then back in, reboot.
    Edit: Just read one of your later posts. If VLC won't play it, this is unrelated to Quicktime and Flip4Mac. Are you sure these wmv files are okay?

  • Why won't Quicktime 7.4.1 play .wmv files when Windows Media Player will?

    I am running OS 10.4.11 on a Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002. When I try to play .wmv files, the following message appears: "The movie could not be opened. The file is not a movie file." However, I can play such files using Windows Media Player. I have installed Quicktime 7.4.1. That hasn't helped.

    Thanks for the suggestions, but I already had Flip4Mac installed. However, I re-installed it, but I get the same disappointing message when I try to open .wmv files from Flip4Mac's "Quicktime Player." Perian doesn't work either. At http://lifehacker.com/software/quicktime/download-of-the-day-perian-mac-204423.p hp I read the following: Perian is a freeware plug-in designed to enable the playback of almost every popular video codec in Quicktime.
    In fact, pretty much the only major codec not supported by Perian is Windows Media Video files (WMV), but previously-mentioned Flip4Mac should take care of your WMV needs.
    I'd appreciate additional comments and suggestions.

  • Unable to play wmv files in my nokia X6

    I was previously able to play wmv files on my nokia x6 initially. I believe that after upgrading my firmware, I am now not able to play WMV files. Whenever i try it gives error as " unable to play media clip"
    I have tried to format the phone to factory default but the problem still persist.

    What version of Authorware are you using?
    Assuming Authorware 7, linking to a .wmv should require the
    movie icon
    to use the Windows Media Player control, which should allow
    the .wmv to
    play as it does on your desktop. If this isn't happening,
    perhaps try
    renaming the extension to .wmp and re'import' into
    Authorware? Maybe
    that will force the WMP engine to start.
    There's a sample on using the WMP ActiveX control here:
    http://www.awaretips.net
    which is a little dated, but may be worth downloading and
    trying with
    your movie just to see if that approach works.

  • Can I play WMV files in a PPT using screen share?

    Will the embedded WMV files in a PPT play correctly using screen share? My CEO has a presentation through Adobe Connect. We plan to screen share. Does this allow Connect to play WMV files? I've google over and over but I seem to get answers for file share instead.

    If you convert the videos to MP4 or FLV you can upload them directly to  a share pod and play them back in the room. Please don't play videos through screen share for the following reasons:
    Screen sharing runs at 3-5 Frames Per Second (FPS), while your video runs at around 30 FPS. Thus your attendees only see about 10% of the videos frames and that makes them look choppy.
    No audio is broadcast through your screen share, it is just the image of your monitor.
    Window's media player (the player most likely to play back WMV content) has anti-piracy stuff built into it, and it notorious for blocking the media from being capture by a screen recording application, which Connect's screen sharing functionality tends to fall into.
    It will just make you and your attendees angry and frustrated.
    Supported file types in the Share pod: PPT, PPTX, PNG, MP4, F4V, Adobe PDF, SWF, FLV, JPEG, and MP3 file types
    To have a video embedded in your PPT that plays back in a Connect Meeting you will likely need Adobe Presenter 10

  • Playing wmv files in Quicktime Pro

    I really want to play wmv files in quicktime. I read that quicktime pro should be able to do so. I have quicktime pro but nether Quicktime Player X or Quicktime 7 Pro can open it, and I know the file isn't corrupted cause it plays on a windows computer. Please help

    You need to install Flip4Mac to play unprotected WMV files. WMV content which contains DRM can't be played in Mac OS X.

  • Play WMV Files in Quicktime

    Hi,
    I run Win XP & Surfari. I am trying to get away from running Media Player. I wish to play WMV files in Quicktime players. I do not wish to use a 3rd party player I just want to be able to open the WMV & it runs in Quicktime. I do not not want to go through the hassle of using another program to convert the file I just want to be able to run it in Quicktime. Is this now possible? I have read other posts in the Forum and nobody has answered this question directly they just say convert..... & that is a stupid answer & not satisfactory
    Many thanks in advance
    PS

    Again, QuickTime for windows can't play .wmv or.wma, in this link look to the column on the right, Supported File Formats.

  • Playing WMV Files From An Email

    If this has been posted previously, please forgive me for not finding it. Simply, how can I play a WMV video file attached to an email in iPhone 3Gs? Is there an app for that?!?!?!?

    WMV is a closed/proprietary Microsoft standard.
    In order to play WMV files on your Mac you need the Windows Media Components for QuickTime installed, which is not provided by Microsoft. Before this, Microsoft provided and supported a Windows a Windows Media Player app for OS X, which they no longer provide or support.
    There will be no Windows Media Player app provided by Microsoft for the iPhone/iPod Touch and Flip4Mac, which provides and supports Windows Media Components for QuickTime on a Mac needs to provide the same for the iPhone and iPod Touch in order to play a WMV file on the iPhone, which they haven't done and not sure if they have any plans to do so or are able to do so.

  • Despite the newest Flip4Mac plugin being installed and Firefox recognizing it, and it is selected to play wmv files, Firefox does not use it.

    What else do I need to say?
    Despite the newest Flip4Mac plugin being installed and Firefox recognizing it, and it is selected to play wmv files, Firefox does not use it.
    Firefox also did NOT import all my settings from Safari, despite being asked to.

    I go to this link

  • Iphone play WMV files

    IS there a way to get iphone to play wmv files? Do you have to change itunes if so how. I am a Windows xp user so it would seem odd, but I have a couple of videos I would like to have on my iphone to show people. I have searched the forums and can't find a decent answer. Thanks

    Well bringing a file into iTunes will allow you to right click and choose convert. But depending on file type, may not get you what you want.
    If you just have .WMV (or AVI, or MPG, etc) files on your computer and you want them converted to work with the iPhone, I would suggest this free converter.
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPhone/
    I have used it to convert home videos of my kids and have them on my iPhone now. That software will also add the converted movie directly into your iTunes library for you.
