You need a media player, VLC is a free download and can play just about everthing. Do you have windows media player it will play some of the files, but I would suggest VLC.

Hope this helps

Or, you can download the codecs to go with Windows Media Player like I did. the link is on the forum somewhere. I dont have it handy to post.

Hi Sphinx, so does that mean when u download the codecs that

windows media player will then burn the movies as well?

Windows Media will NOT burn movies, it will only play MPEG(any)&WMA

The Real player is a good player for movie files
