how to play avi files before they download?
 

i cannot play avi files until they have fully downloaded, anyone know how, i can preview mpg ones straight away but not avi.

This is a weird one. I've heard people say that it's impossible to preview an avi but I've done it a few times. Try getting extra codecs for your player, or have a look at VLC player, it has built in codecs. The only prob with VLC... if you're using Windows, you'll have to open your incomplete folder outside of LW & preview from there. For some reason it will let Mac users preview within LW but not Win users:confused:

Codecs & VLC

Thanks birdy!
