Trouble Downloading Movies
 

Whenever I try to download movies it says "Need More Sources" then I right click and click on "Find More Sources For Download" then I wait a while and it just eventually says "Awaiting Sources" and I am never able to download my file. Now what I am wondering is what can I do so that I am able to just click and download my file and not have to wait forever and have it not work.
P.S. How do I make sure that the file is legit and isn't just a virus or inappropriate content.

There are lots of fake files around, these will sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever:(

Always use Bitzi to check a file before download. People use Bitzi to rate files...if the file's been rated then you'll get an idea of content & quality. It's very helpful with weeding out fake & misnamed files. See the 'how to use Bitzi' link for info about downloading Bitcollider...so that you can rate files yourself.
If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake. There's more info & tips in the threads below.

If a file has a good rating on Bitzi, or if you want to take a chance on an unrated file, preview the file after ~10% - 15% download...just to check.

Stay away from .exe, .rar, .wmv, .zip, & .mov files. Check file sizes...if a file looks suspiciously small then avoid it! A movie's generally 600 - 800 MB or larger.

i am at my wits end with all the trouble i am haveing with every movie download.i will download a few movies and by the time its gets to the end it wont finish even when it gets to 100% download and you lose all the file cause you have to delete it movies that show no downloads but you check with bitzi and it says completed and nothing happens even when your trying to download for days but the name who post the message on bitzi is always the same.and if i download a movie and press search for it to go to the top of the page the movie does,nt come up but another page withall different movies on i have all the security i have even deleted limewire and enstalled it but am still haveing all these problem i would be gratful for any help.

I was finally able to download the movie but at the end of the title it says .avi So I tried to play the movie using Windows Media Player and it said: "One or more codecs required to play the file could not be found". What do I do in order to play the movie?

you need to go to filehippo and download some codec there is all different ones there i myself use k-lite hope this helps you
