I want to listen to a court hearing. They gave it to me on a CD. When I put it in (I have both Real Player and Media Center) it says there's a missing codec 8180 I assume this is just a program needed to run it. When I go to the button to get more, it says it is not available. Any ideas?
I'm not aware that that's a valid codec - can I get a pointer to the content? If you upload it somewhere (yousendit, megaupload), I can take a peek at the codecs it thinks it's using.

My guess is that the audio was recorded onto a PC via digital recording software and then burned to the CD for you. You likely need to play the audio on the CD using the same program it was recorded from. Assuming the courts were using FTR software to record (that might be wrong), you need to download the free player from FTR's website and play the audio CD through their software. You are likely dealing with a .wav file on the disk that has been designed to only play on a certain player software. Hope that helps. "ROBYNBEZ" wrote: > I want to listen to a court hearing.

I purchased an audio recording of a hearing. It was delivered with a link, not the file, for playing the recording. Wow, I spent a lot of time looking for Codec 8180. What I really needed was the FREE FTR player. Look Here: http://www.fortherecord.com/page.asp?pageid=222 Hopefully someone can Google around and link the useful information for others to find. Thanks everyone for putting it here....
