[MPlayer-users] Quicktime .mov file with WMV and WMA codes

[Jatin Sharma]

Yesterday, I tried to play the file but it gave me errors that video codes 
not found. I don't have the error log right now as I am at work. I 
downloaded the mplayer zip file and un-zipped it on my destop. Then I 
downloaded the codecs and unzippped all the files under the codec directory 
that is under mplayer directory. Does the mplayer directory need to be under 
the C:\Program Files ???
