    Movies and TV Stopped Letting Me Play Mp4 Videos


    I have no clue why this started to happen. Before I was able to access any file I wanted but now I can not access mp4 videos. I read that it has to do with my codec but I didn't touch it. If someone could give a thorough explanation on how I can fix this issue that would be great. I have posted a gif of what happens when I open a file This happens with all mp4 files.

    Can't play mp4 video in edge or using "movies & tv"

    Is there a codec package I can download from Microsoft to enable this to work?

    Movies & Tv app stopped playing my mp4 movies

    When I try an play any Mp4 movie in the Movies & Tv app it attempts to play, gives the movie details like running time but will not play and closes the app. It was working fine. Restarted the computer several times.

    Movies and TV app - MP4 file problem

    Hello all,
    Running Ver 1607;
    As a result of a seperate issue, I recently changed to 'Movies & TV' app as my default in lieu of Windows Media Player.

    When I play MP4 movies on my PC, the video is jerky and the audio is out of synch? Basically they are not watchable. AVI files play ok.

    If I play any MP4 from my media player (windows share), it plays normally.

    If I play any MP4 using WMP it plays normally.

    I have run Defender and Malwarebytes (free) just to be sure and they both come up clear of any nasties.

    Have I somehow got a corrupt MP4 codec in 'Movies & TV'? Is this possible?

    How would I rectify this? Prefer to stay with 'Movies & TV'.
