So my new job started. The company provided me with a computer with a Windows Server 2008 operating system and they told me I should watch some Live Meeting recorded instructions and demonstrations about how the system works that I will be working on.

Live Meeting, in case you don’t know, has a very cool feature where you can record a power point and video demonstration and play it back later. The problem is that the video part does not work for a 64 bit operating system like Windows Server 2008. An error prompts you to download an MSA1 codec.

After a few attempts to solve the problem, I asked the administrative assistant for a second computer which she gave me. But it turns out the only one I got was one with a Vista 64 bit operating system and I found I still had the same problem with the new computer.

I have a 32 bit Vista operating system computer at home so I took the files home to see if I could run the Live Meeting recordings there. To my shock, I got the same error.

That is the problem I have. Now here are my questions. Where in the world do I get the codec for MSA1? How do I install delete this linefile on my computer? Surely there must be some sort of work-around for the computers with the 64 bit operating system. What are these work-arounds? I have searched the internet and I have yet to find a solution.

What fun!

But the bottom line seems to be finding and installing the MSA1 CODEC. Can you help me with this?

I have found the file that my system is trying to run and I have tried to run it seperately.


Trying to play a video in Windows Media Player on a 32bit Windows XP Pro Operating System (with Service Pack 3 installed) takes me to this web page:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...0D1&codec=MSA1

Which says:

Windows Media Player Error Message Help

You've encountered error message C00D10D1 while using Windows Media Player. The following information might help you troubleshoot the issue.

Codec is missing

Windows Media Player cannot play the file (or cannot play either the audio or video portion of the file) because the MSA1 codec is not installed on your computer.

The missing codec might be available to download from the Internet. To search for the MSA1 codec, go to the WMPlugins.com Web site

And this takes me to this web site:
http://www.wmplugins.com/Unavailable...spx?codec=MSA1

Which says:

The codec you are missing is not available for download from this site. You might be able to find it on another site by searching the Web for "MSA1" (this is the WaveFormat or FourCC identifier of the codec).
