Question Posted Friday January 11 2008, 12:37 am

When I download videos, the sound plays & the visual doesn't.. This is the second time it's happened to me. At first when I try to play it, it says "Aquiring Codec" & then it plays just the sound. Last time it happened, someone told me to download this codec pack, but I dont know where to get it now :[ Does anyone know where I can download it for free?

Here is a codec pack with nearly every codec in existence:

You want the "full" version, at the top. Direct download link:

Depending on which media player you use now, you might have to use the included Media Player Classic for some of the codecs to work.

Alternatively, you could use VLC media player:

VLC is easier to install, but it includes less codecs than the K-Lite codec pack I mentioned above, and I don't like its interface. Direct download link:

Few things are needed to answer your question properly. One, what format are you downloading in? Second, what player are you using and have you tried a different player? Unless you know this, it's almost impossible to answer your question.
