I know QuickTime has an animation codec. I'm not sure about the other codec packs for such. I'm surprised VLC wouldn't play some. I'd like to know what extension those files have that you can't play. Did you try one of those codec identifiers?

thats weird. every1 keps on chatting bout VLC while i think it's crap. hey lord of the rings what makes VLC that famous that i can't?? like i download VLC and it can't play some simple file i download k-lite it plays the file. wtf is that and people keep on chatting bout VLC. surely the must be something wrong, is it that am downloading the oldest version ever?(cause the the screen shot reminds me of the 70's) or is it that am doing something wrong.
correct me if am wrong but shouldn't VLC suppose to play file that WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER cnt. where it says " THE FORMAT IS SUPPORTED BUT THE CODE THAT WAS USED TO COMPRESS IT MIGHT NOT"

wat am i doing wrong !!!!??

(to lord of the rings. quick time!!!? thats the worst media player that ever existed!!!) i downloaded it once and it took me ages to get it of my sistem
it keepps on clashing and doing unasked tasks
