Viewing movies
 

Can some plz help me?? I tried downloading a film and attempted to view it. I got the message

''windows media player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or might not suport the codec that was used to compress the file''

After 5 or 6 attempts with other film, I noticed this occurs most often with avi files. Coincidence??I am using windows media player 10 btw

Thanks, now it works fine.

Can you tell me why windows media player didnt work for this type of file????

i don't know
could be a question for anti-trust (i'm jokin')

Becouse it could not find the right Codec
