You know

If VLC can't play your downloaded file it's probably a fake, I would suggest you download something else and try again.

Also, better virus check your computer for infections because that's what fake files do, infect and screw up your machine.

THanks - but still no work!
 
This is really making me frustrated. Ive downloaded 2 differnt files of the same thing - took 48 hours - and NEITHER of them work! I'm opening up with VLC and nothing on screen. I burnt to disk - nothing there. Im wanting to give up on this download business already. I thank you for your help and direction. I read the links and understood some more - but I still cant make it work. :(

When you open one of those files up in VLC, go to Window menu & choose 'Media information' (or control i keys), click on Codec Details tab. Click on each stream & see what it says. I'd be curious to know what exact streams are encoded with the video file that makes it unable for VLC to play it.
