Probably fake files. Check out the 2 stickies below for more info (the second one has tips that apply to movies as well).

The fakes are driving everyone crazy & some people seem to have way more of a problem than others. Try searching using the All Types search...it gives me quite different results than a more specific search & I've been able to download video files that a Video search 30 seconds before couldn't find. Don't ask me why. Try searching for actors' & director's name too.

Keep away from the files with really huge numbers of sources. If the movie you're looking for is a new release or really popular, it's more likely that you'll see bogus results. Sometimes it just comes down to waiting for new sources to come online. I know it's frustrating. If you do find a file that will connect but doesn't have a Bitzi rating, you can try it. Preview it thru the download to check it. Then rate it yourself...download Bitcollider (you can get it from the Bitzi site).
