Hmm, I would think that mpg contains the video portion, too. Good luck. I hope you don't need to re-record the videos. I will talk to my brother and ask him, to make sure.

Yes I did record in mpg format. These are movies that I watched successfully on 
my old laptop but had also backed up to an external hard drive. I had one of 
those video to computer conversion kits. I do not recall if I ever tested the 
back up files on my previous laptop to in sure that what I moved to the 
external hard drive was copied correctly, I just assumed that it did as I have 
with all my other files.

I thought I had read that Media Player only plays CDs.

Hi Robin,

Perhaps you only recorded the sound.
Unless you patched a video cable from your VCR into the video port of a video 
capture card on your PC, then, that's all you would have recorded.
You would have had to record in MPG or WMV or another video file format as 
well. Sorry. (smile)

Hth,

Rod

Subject: Windows Media Player

On my old Windows 7 laptop, I had copied some olfd VHS movies to my hard drive 
for my kids.  I would play them with Window Media Player.  I got a new Windows 
10 laptop and copied the movies from my external backup hard drive to load them 
onto this new laptop.  I went to show my kids a movie as I had done previously, 
but they are telling me there is no video on Window Media Player, just sound.  
Any ideas if there is some setting that needs to be tweaked?
