This is the error message we reiceive: Inquisit Media Error: Pins cannot connect because they don't support the same transport. line 74: file win\MediaPlayerControl.cpp Unable to the load media file 'C:/Users/DifDia/Desktop/MASTER Syntax File Inquisit 4/5_Emotion Perception Emo Upright-Inverted/p_1_f_AN_80_i.AVI'. Verify the file is of a supported video format. Unable to the load media file 'C:/Users/DifDia/Desktop/MASTER Syntax File Inquisit 4/5_Emotion Perception Emo Upright-Inverted/p_1_f_AN_80_i.AVI'. Verify the file is of a supported video format. Inquisit Error: Line 428, File Trial.cpp. Inquisit Error: Line 229, File Trial.cpp. Inquisit Error: Line 276, File Block.cpp. Inquisit Error: Line 130, File Expt.cpp. Inquisit Error: Line 330, File Manager.cpp. The inquisit script works on a different laptop, without any error messages. Also other tasks with videos are fine on our laptop. Can anyone help? We are running out of ideas :( Thanks in advance! Tags .avi

You need find that out and get the corresponding codec (specifically DirectShow filter) or you need to transcode the video(s) to a different format.

VLC comes with its own set of binary codecs. They are not available to any other applications or the entire OS. You can try installing a codec pack such as K-Lite or, as I said, re-encode the videos to a different format.
