Get VLC to preview your files! http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (choose nearest mirror site) It has in-built codecs.

Other things to be aware of:

1. CODECs list and alternate players for Movies

2. Movie download issues

3. autogenerated spam results

4. WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

5. Learn to use Bitzi; How to use Bitzi Web Lookup ...

Hi Chris

I have found that with most, if not all, movies you can't preview them unless you have at least 10% or more downloaded, even with the VLC media player. So, I'm afraid, 1% won't do it you need more, lots more.

There is probably a technical reason for this but, at this point, I couldn't say (don't know).
