The 2 particular files are both .avi - however I have d/l'd other .avi files which I can watch, eg (names of films etc are purely fictional of course!) Lets say I had Shreak and Kill Me and The Twiinies(not a full legnth film just 20 mins long) all .avi, I can watch the Twiinies no problem but the others just throw up these error messages each time media player launches (COOD109B or codecs required could not be found.) I have downloaded everyhting you guys have suggested, just about to try the last 2 from Lord of the Rings, but another question first - Are all these things I have already downloaded compatable with each other, should I be uninstalling any of them first?
Thanks
