Angry how to download movies

I wanted to download movies, everything I search for no matter how popular the movie was results in nothing. I finally found a movie, but now it won't even play in QuickTime or Windows Media player. How do I fix this?

For Windows, click on the link below-------

http://everwicked.com/nimo

There you will find and can download Nimo Codec Pack version 5.0 build 7
Install it paying careful attention to his instructions about the two files you SOULD NOT select for installation unless you definitely need them. Also select that you want it to be added to your Quick Launch menu.
A tip......... Select ALL of the codecs, except the two he warns about, by making a red check mark.
You do not have to do anything, really, after installing. Almost anything you want to play should work after you do install Nimo Codec Pack. It is free.

If you have a Mac, you have a lot more work to do than just downloading a codec pac. First, make sure that you have all the Indeo video codecs. If you are downloading avi's, the video may open in QT, but the audio will be deranged. There are several programs to assist you. 1) DivX Doctor 2, which, with an accompanying dec (soon to be codec) will split the mp3 audio from the video and reassemble. If audio is wma, however, there is no Mac program to deal with it if DivX Dr cannot decompress the audio. If it can, you can then extract the audio in QT Pro and convert to an mp3 in iTunes or SoundJam or whatever. Have lots of time and disk space available 2) for OS X only, AVI2MOV, which does the same thing as DivX Doctor, which can run in 9 or X, 3) DivX Tool, which can separate audio from video in some movies that choke DivX Dr. You then paste the mp3 audio into the video which you have extracted with QuickTime Pro. 4)QT Mutator, which can realign audio to video if either of the previous programs messes up the synch.

All of these -- Indeo codecs, DivX Doctor 2, AVI2MOV, DivX Tool, and QT Mutator -- are linked at versiontracker.com.

There are also some mpg's that QT simply can't deal with. I have no idea why.

thanks for your help, but when I went to the website and tried to download the Nimo Codec Pack it would not allow me to do it becase the URL address could not be found. Thus I am still stuck, the movies won't play.
