Video Error in 10.4.0 (resolved)

Post by Livenoise » Wed Mar 25, 2009 9:26 am

Hello everyone,

I am attempting to play videos usung SCS but keep receiving the error message:

SCS Video Error:
Error C00D11B1 Windows Media Player has encoutered a problem while playing the file. For additional assistance, click Web Help.

The web help directed to is this http://www.microsoft.com/windows/window ... d=8889000A . However I am none the wiser after this.

Any help greatly appreciated, and more info on request!

Cheers, Aidan

There is something about your video files that is preventing Windows Media Player (WMP) playing the files. Error code C00D11B1 is often associated with trying to play files with DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection. Is this the case with your video files?

Also, do you have a mixture of video file types in the same cue file (.scs file)? If so, try setting up a cue file with only one video cue, using a file that normally gives you C00D11B1. Does that cue file run the video OK? (You may need to close and re-open SCS.)

Ah yes, It could well be DRM protection. I tried using the Windows sample videos and it brought up the same error, but then with a different video of mine there were no issues. This was the same in my show's cue file and in a new cue file.

Many thanks,

Aidan.
