What? You want someone to respond within 10 minutes. That's damned arrogant to expect on any forum. Some forums you're lucky if you get a response within 3-5 days & sometimes not at all. How about this link http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showpo...00&postcount=2

i read all the sticky threads,i installed vlp player,also all the codecs,but still cant preview!!when the file is compleeted i can open the file but nothing happens when i hit the preview button!!!:(

If you're using VLC with Windows, you can't preview or launch within LW.

To preview, go to your LW library & click on Incompletes then click Explore. Your incomplete folder opens & you can preview from there.

To launch a file go to your LW library, click on Saved Files then click Explore. Your saved folder opens & you can launch from here.

thank you for your help but i still cant preview with the way you told me!
my old laptop was asus m6 series and i had no problem with it (i still have that laptop and no problem) i just bought an hp pavilion and installed limewire, tried everything thats told in threads but still no solution!
i dont know what to do...

Launch directly from the incompletes folder.

i know that
but that doesnt work too
i am compleetly hopeless,
i dont think to try again sth,because i am really tired of trying everything,noone could find a solution :(

Open incomplete folder, ie: go to LW's LIbrary window, select incomplete folder, press Explore button, this will open the folder for you. Then, if VLC is your default video program, then double-click the video file & VLC should open it. If VLC is the default, then it will probably have the VLC icon.

If you're still using WMP, then lol you need to try to find the right codecs.

WMP is my default player,but the problem is that when i hit preview button WMP is not opened,nothing happens,i think this not related with the codecs.
if it was so WMP warns me that the format isnt supported.
i can see all the files after they are completed.

Try making VLC default. Then preview thru the Incomplete folder & see what happens.
Within WMP tools > options > file types. Untick the file type you're trying to preview...just so WMP doesn't try to open it.
