Well it all started when i read a computer magazine and found a program called Media Portal. I have WinTV2000 so i can use my TV tuner but its not a very, lets say, atractive or multi-functional program. I downloaded and install ed Media Portal which asked me to install some video codecs and so i did. I tried the program but when watching TV and flicking through channels it doesnt say what you are watching. So i went back to my old WinTV2000, but the actually video that was playing was only a quater of the screen. I unistalled this Media Portal but that didnt work. So i searched google for how to remove video codecsand found out in system settings->hardware->device manager->then the video codecs. I removed the ones that i didnt recognize. I still have DivX, XviD, Fraps (a program to record gaming) and MS-MPEG 4 driver. This also didnt fix the small video. I just lived with it for a couple of days. Then i tried to watch a video online but when i got half way through the computer went into the blue screen of death. before i can get the error code it restarts. I have tried to do system restore (before i removed the codecs i made a restore point) but it says it could do it. So i tried again but at an earlier time and that didnt work. Now when i look on the video codec list all the codecs are there, but it still crashes and still has a small video. Sorry for such a long problem but can anybody help me?
Well i fixed the problem of crashing when watching online videos. I reinstalled ie7 and Media Player. But the screen is still too small when i am watching TV on WinTV2000. I might reinstall it but i dont know where the disc is. If you have any ideas please post.
Check in the options if there is something for the Video Resolution... Also, somtimes it depends on the video u watching. In regards to the Blue Screen, Check in Event Viewer to find out what happend with your computer...
already checked the resolution. the blue screen thing is fixed. still need to fix the video being so small in winTV
