With VLC, you'll have to launch from outside of LW. Go to your LW library, click on Saved Files then Explore. Your saved folder will open, try to play from here & see what happens.

Is this happening with all video files? Are you checking the files with Bitzi before download?

You'll have to preview by opening the incomplete folder outside of LW too
