Are you using Phex (you've posted in the Phex forum)???

Phex?
 
Sorry Birdy, I wouldn't know what a "Phex" was if you hit me with it! All I can tell you is that a mate of mine told me about Limewire and being able to download films. Now every time i try i get "need more sources"! Only been successful twice, first download turned out to be nothing more than soundtrack and graphics clips and second time all i get is windows media error message and won't play! Thought it was gonna be easy but turned into nightmare! do you know any other free sites? Saj:shoot:

There are lots of fake files on the network. They'll sit connecting for ages & then always need more sources. Check out the threads below for more info & tips. Check files before download with Bitzi;)

Fake files showing up in search results
How to find music (tips for movies as well)

You might need codecs for your player. The thread below has links to codec packs (XP codec pack is popular & so is K-Lite codec pack).
CODECs list for Movies/Alternate players / Video help forums/ video-mp3 fixers

That thread also has a link to VLC player. It's free, has codecs installed & is very reliablehttp://www.gnutellaforums.com/../ima...ilies/wink.gif

And here's a link for Vista codecs, just in case you're using Vista.
Vista Codec Package v4.4.8 (freeware)
