First of all, that's here the Phex client forum, not the LimeWire client forum.
You could try to use a different media player such as the free VLC player with built-in codecs which can play almost all media files without problems. You can download it from here:

As a side note, to preview files with it you'll have to open the files directly from the Incomplete folder and not via the LW preview function.
