windows media player help
 

when I try to download a movie and watch it in windows media player, an error message comes up saying "class not registered."
Is it because its extension is .avi?

You probably need codecs for your WMP. Try the XP codec pack here

There's a link to an alternative player as well:)

ok thanks, but how do I get it to open in the VLC media player instead of windows media player?

Make VLC your default player. Instructions here

You'll have to open the file outside of LW when you want to play it. For some reason, VLC seems to have trouble launching or previewing within LW if you use Windows.
