downloaded movie but only i get sound only
 

As stated above, I'm usually fine when i download moive, but everynow and then I'll download a movie and I get the sound and everything, but the movie itself doesn't show. Is there something that I am doing wrong and if so, how do I fix it?

Thanks :)

edit: and of course, trying to make a good thead, I screw up on the topic title

You probably don't have the correct codec for the video portion. Try using a program like G-Spot or Virtual Dub to determine what codec was used.

Here is a link to some codec pacs and also VLC player (often recommended because it will play almost all videos and is free):

Here's a link for G-Spot (at bottom of page)

Good Luck :laugh_2:
