A

DivX AVI 8.99 MB You must have the DivX 5 or higher codec installed to play this movie. You will need the  Pro version to use this movie as a source file for any editing or conversion application.
2 B AVI MPEG-4.avi 10.0 MB Requires the Microsoft MPEG-4 codecs.
3 A MPEG-1 8.02 MB Converted from WMV Windows Media Source.

7 A MPEG-2 11.76 MB You must have MPEG-2 codecs installed on your system to correctly play MPEG-2 movies. The codec server in Windows Media Player will not automatically download MPEG-2 codecs. DVD Players such as Win DVD usually include an MPEG-2 codec that Windows Media Player can use.

14 A Windows Media WMV 4.43 MB If these movies won't play in your Windows Media Player you probably need the one or more additional Windows Media codecs. See our knowledge base for more.
15 B NiceDay.wmv 1.00 MB
16 B NiceDay.asf 1.3 MB For some unknown reason Internet Explorer sometimes tries to change the file extension of this file from an ASF movie to a Windows Media Play List ASX file. This may be an indication that you don't have the earlier versions of Windows Media Codecs which can be problematic for editors. See our knowledge base for more.
