MPG files makes computer hang!
Can someone explain why my computer 'hangs' when either double-clicking on a .mpg file or opening the same in Windows Media Player. Never happens with my .avi files.
After restarting the computer it sometimes happens again - other times not. After a couple of restarts, double-clicking on the file & it loads as if nothing had happened. The file then plays OK in the Media Player window.
Whichever way you look at it though, it becomes a real time-waster!
The .mpg files (PAL VCD) are converted from .avi files (MJPEG) using MSPro6, which uses the built-in Ligos software.
Would appreciate answers to this problem if poss. Thanks.
