open eyes :)

maybe you have wrong codes, try some codec pack (CCCP for example), its easier than manually downloading & installing codecs

BTW, zoomplayer autodownloads missing codecs or not? Did it work before? Did you change some codec settings?

I installed Vista Ultimate recently, but shouldn't wmp play mpg and such by default? I'll check if i have all codecs

Nope. ^^
Especially since some file extensions actually designate container formats that can use all kinds of different codecs.

Personally, on my quest to finding a good codec pack, I stumbled upon the XP Codec Pack, which, contrary to its name, works on all Windows systems. =)

http://www.xpcodecpack.com/

I like it because it doesn't feel bloated and has a nice site and a polished installer, which communicate to me that a lot of effort has been put into it.

I used the K-Lite codec pack before but its editions contain either too many or too few features, IMHO, without telling the user which codecs are the most likely to appear.

It's not detecting your codecs, prolly your registery is fked up.

Have you tried installing the K-lite codec pack?

Btw, which OS u run ?

Looks like vista or some themepack on XP...

Google for codec packs and keep installing them until it works :)
But its weird, zplayer autodownloaded missing codecs for me

Yep, looks like Vista.

Can you download the following tools and tell us if they detect the codecs on the system (GSpot analyzes the files) or any problems?

They have been very useful to me in the past and I always keep them around.

Update your codec pack and your flash player!
