I downloaded david cross the pride is back and my friend has 3 episodes of the state downloaded, but they refuse to play eventhough they are in .avi for and we have codecs up the ass. I have no idea how it works..

I've had issues with Windows Updates messing with video playback. Even in winamp.

I'm just saying. Sorry I can't help.

Does the .avi play at all, or is there sound only/picture only? And if it doesnt work at all, what kind of error message do you get?

I use VLC media player, it is free, ugly and smells. But it play EVERYTHING w/out codec problems.


A note: If this .AVI is coded as XVID this can be the root of the problem, a time ago my laptop hung simply listing a folder with a XVID file I simply uninstalled the XVID thingy and installed the actual version, the problem died fast but painfully for him.
