Can't see movie
 

When I try to see the movie that I down load, winamp pops up but dosen show picture. (****** : type avi)

Please edit out your post (see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/announ...?forumid=29 ). You cannot mention these things on this website!
Your problem sounds as though it's a codec issue. You'll need to obtain xtra codecs for Winamp. I'd tell you which ones & where to get them after you edit your post.

I'm new to this, how do I edit my Post.

Press the edit button 2nd from the right, above the post reply button, & edit out the name of the movie. If everybody put in names of what they're dwnlding, this websie would be closed down quicksmart.

Never mind I already edited for you.

Thanks
 

Thanks! I were lost, AGAIN THANKS!!

Firstly get GSpot.. it's free and it will tell you what you need to play a certain file.. just open the file in GSpot and it will tell you. I thought I had another reference as well, but I seem to have temporarily misplaced it, dash it. If you still have problems after trying out GSpot, get back to this thread. Actually I think RaaF knows the answer if he is still around.

GSPOT
 

Now that I have Gspot, how do I get the file from LimeWire to play it. Please! I won't bother you again, at lease I'll try not to.

You better not open video files from within Limewire.
Go to your shared folder and open the file from there.
A good player that will open allmost any video file without the need for codecs is : http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

I thought you said yopu'd already dwnlded it. Sure, with gspot you must already have the file dwnlded. Oh, one place you can visit is: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Winamp.htm

Or try Videolan (VLC).
Yeah I do have better things to do too! Full-band video processing, graphics & animation. A small thanks for my time & effort would go a long way. Sorry I can't find the other ref. If you can't launch a partially dwnlded movie properly, then that's probably how it is.
