Default Help w/ Movies! (trouble playing files after download)

HI--

I am using Limewire on Windows Vista, and I have had problems downloading movies. When I download mpg. files, they run on Windows Media Player just fine. However, any other types of files, mainly avi. and mov. files will not play. They open up in WMP, but it says it cannot play that file type.

So, I downloaded the VLC Media player so that I could play the files not supported by WMP. However, now when I try to downloading these, (after setting the default for these files to VLC Media Player so that the VLC icon appears next to them in the search list), they download just fine, but nothing comes up when I try to play them. Any help?

UPDATE: Ok I just got one of the avi. files to play with VLC, but it's only playing the sound...no video.
