I am trying to run a wmv file at work and get the error codec missing...

Sipro Lab Telecom ACELP.net (130)

Where is the best place to get the codec from or should I upgrade windows media player!!

Thanks

try downloading the k-lite codec pack (with MPC) I find that handles most issues. I believe there is another popular one at the moment, but can't think what it is called.

Install latest WMP. Preferably uninstall the existing and then re-install the latest. Quick research suggests that codec should be included with later versions of WMP.

CCCP

Combined community codec pack.

That should cover everything, the only obscure codec that I have problems with is some weird intel codec (IV5?) which nobody seems to support anymore.

They come with some additional codecs, but not a great deal of them.
