Default Videos won't work

Everytime I try to watch a video, nothing happens and all of the icons are little white boxes. I usually use Mindows Media Player, but it isn't showing when I launch a video. I have VLC, DivX but don't know how to use it since I just downloaded it. Can someone help me?

Open either divX player or VLC player & control-O for open & direct the program to where the files is & select to open. Alternatively, you can change the default to open those video files; ie: Setting Default video app & then Launch thru LW. You will need to re-start LW before it takes effect however!

Another option is to put a shortcut on your desktop to the VLC and DIVX players and then you can drag and drop files from the LW library onto the shortcuts and they will open and start playing the file.

I got some of my videos to work on DivX but some won't work and they're .avi files, My Limewire is still showing those white box things and I still can't watch videos off of Limewire or VLC.
