Well guys or gals, this is only MY opinion, but I think WMP is the BIGGEST Pile of CRAP that you can use. It seems to me, and I have experianced this firsthand, WMP ALWAYS needs something like codex or there seems to Always be transfer problems from Limewire to WMP. It just doesn't have to be so difficult. Believe me, cuz I don't and never will ever use WMP again

I would suggest trying VLC Player. Has Codec built in and will play almost anything. If you're interested, here is the link. It is Highly Recommened here on the Forums.

ermmmm...well I have used WMP pretty much exclusively for ages....and I just download the K-lite codec pack and all is good....VLC player WILL play incomplete files though, and that is a good thing, neh?

Default DivX codecs

What about downloading DivX codecs, that helped me to play movies on Windows Media, I may be off the beaten track, I hope not, but I'm not professional and it's just a suggestion...


QUOTE=Remoc;301560]Well Thanks for all the info. I guess I will guess.
Next time you might offer up a little more info like the media player you are using.
What kind of file you're trying to play. Stuff like that really helps us help you.
You might need codecs. Try this one. Like I said it's only a guess.

Download the K-Lite Codec Pack.

You could also try another Media Player.
