My movie was made by Windows Movie Maker if that helps. I've tried it as both a wmv and an mpg. Both times I get the same result, the sound plays, but I see nothing. Every other program on my computer is fine with the movie.

The second video file is mpeg-2.

I have installed FFDshow, which claims to be a directshow codec for mpg files. It did not solve my problem.
