playing videos on my realplayer
 

Can somebody please help me? I already downloaded a video on limewire. I am trying to play the video by using my realplayer but it won't work. After I downloaded those files, I went on download.com to see if I could upgrade my limewire. When I got it upgraded to limewire 4.8.1. Could my upgrading limewire have something to do with my problem?

When I try to play the video, the realplayer comes up then for some reason, a thingy comes up. It says something is wrong with the MPL. Can somebody tell me what that is? Whenever I try to open it and thing pops up and it says: The DLL "cpuinf32.dll" cannot be loaded. OS reports: the specified module could not be found. Then I press OK. Then another thing pops up and it says: The DLL "mplapx.dll" cannot be loaded. OS reports: the specified module could not be found. When I click OK, my real player shuts down.

Can somebody please help me to fix this problem so I can watch my videos again?

oh yeah... I forgot to mention, I used to be able to watch the videos, but now they won't play. I could have possibly deleted something needed to play the videos, but I am not sure.

Can somebody tell me what is wrong and why I can't play my videos I downloaded on LimeWire?

um.. I tried opening the video with another player but it won't work either.

if it helps... the files all are MPEG.

Please somebody, help me!!

Sounds like a codec issue. I presume the following codecs will also load with RP: http://www.land.ee/d_nimo_codec.html or http://www.free-codecs.com/

And get a backup player like VLC which is free & has built-in codecs: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (choose nearest mirror site)

um.. if I go to the second website, which one of the codecs do I download. I tried downloading the first one already, but my videos still don't work.

can u tell me which one I should download?

me too
