Problems installing huffyuv...

Postby Aerialesque » Thu Sep 07, 2006 9:34 pm

Okay, this is probably going to sound pretty ignorant, but I can't seem to get the huffyuv codec installed on my laptop. I downloaded it and unzipped the files, and there's supposed to be a 'huffyuv.inf' file that I'm supposed to right click on to install, right? Well...it's just not there. All I have is 'huffyuv.dll,' and some notepad files......I'm really confused. I tried downloading lagarith, as well, and the same thing happened.

I use Windows XP...I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I noticed that it wasn't among the list of system requirements for downloading the codec. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ^^

Did you try right clicking on any of those "notepad" files to see if one of them lets you install it? It sounds like windows is just configured to hide the file extensions.

Oh, wow...I am such an idiot. I thought the rest of them were all text documents, but one of them isn't. Could've sworn I clicked on it before and there was no 'install' option. *headdesk* ....that really was an ignorant question, haha. But anyway, thank you for your help. ^^
