Hi Everyone,
I am a new user and on some downloads after completion I get the following message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file." My operating system is Windows XP and I use Windows Media player. Any Ideas? Thanks, Joseph

Try installing the VLC media player, it has all the codecs pre-installed and can play just about all files...
VLC media player - Overview Get one of these pacs also... For XP this codec pac is very good Download XP Codec Pack 2.0.8 - XP Codec Pack is one of the most complete codec pack Or for Vista this pac Vista Codec Package v4.5.7 (freeware) Another tip to try is sticking with avi files and check them with Bitzi before downloading... How to use Bitzi Web Lookup .. & How to use Magnet Links & Direct Connect/Browse/Chat __________________
