How to download Movies/Video's

[Ambernbrian]

I am having trouble downloading movies, and videos. Some will play some wont. The ones that wont play, wont play for different reasons, eather the network detects problems with download, or my player doesn't support the commpressed file the download came from. Now usally this accures with the movie's more the videos.

I am able to download shorts like "Baby Farts" or Girl Gone Wild clips. But movies like Finding Nemo, or The Incredibales or Kill Bill Vol. 2. Why is this happening?

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WHEN I TRY TO PREVIEW BRIDE OF CHUCKY. I WAS WONDERING IF ITS BECAUSE OF THE FILE TYPE LIKE .avi

[Ambernbrian]

I don't know why. I am hoping someone can help me.

Your problem is simple...CODEC's. What you need is first DivX (Player and Codec's at www.divx.com). Next you will need some codecs, you can either search google and get the pack that suites you (search movie codec's in google) or you can visit:www.inmatrix.com or www.free-codecs.com/ and download all the major codecs. Good Luck. Ambernbrian those porn things are probally asf files and are probally not attequate size. Movies are usually 700 MB or 200MB if they are slit up into two parts.

VLC media player is another good player and it has the codecs built in.

More info on codecs and media players here: CODECs list and alternate players for Movies

XP Codec Pack 1.3.3 is a good one to use with windows media player.
