You have a codec problem there are possible solutions for your problem but I will recommend the number "1" solution.

1. You may download and install a codec pack from a trusted source. I will give you a link but if you have other sources it's fine

link: http://www.free-codecs.com/k_lite_codec_pack_download.htm

Please scroll down and click "Download [ K-Lite Codec Pack 8.4.0 FULL ]

2. Upgrade or update the player that you are using it may be outdated.

3. It may be an corrupted file on your windows( very low chance)

I hope it will solve your problem may I know if it will work or not

Dear Ronald,

Please try the below mentioned steps in sequential fashion to get past the issue.

Step1:  Click on Start button, navigate to Control Panel, search for sound in the search box. You will see four tabs here, namely Playback, Recording, Sounds andCommunication. Out of these four tabs, Click on the Sounds tab. From the sound scheme drop down select windows default modified, click onApply and thenOK

If the Step 1 does not fixes the issue, move to Step 2.

Step 2: Open the Media Player. Navigate to Media Player options and select auto detect proxy.This should rectify the error.
