Hi all,

When attempting to play a file I get the following message:
Codec not supported:
VLC could not decode the format " " (No description for this codec)

The file name suggests it is h264 codec yet VLC does not seem to pick this up. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Please share the file.

Hi Rom1v,

What's the best method to share a file? It's about 1GB.

Upload a short sample of your original problematic file to Zippyshare.com or to WeTransfer.com and then post the link to the file here.

https://wetransfer.com

Cut it with DGsplit and read here about how to do it:

100 MB max should be enough.
