PLEASE HELP ME IM IN NEED OF HELP. The all great limewire (got to love em) has a certain preview button so that if you want to listen to a song that is downloading you can hear what part it has down loaded and for music videos you hit preview and WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER pops up and you get to watch it. But for some MUSIC VIDEOS and MOVIE VIDEOS it says it is unable to play it is there any way that i could change the default previewer from WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER tooo I dont know REALPLAYER or what i have is ROXIO is there a way so that it shows the preview on them not on WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER since they wont work for WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER????? PLEASE HELP I WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHAT HAS DOWNLOAD FOR SOME THINGS IM DOWNLOAD.

P.S. LIMEWIRE IS THE BEST EVER!

I think RealPlayer is the only app that will play RM video files. You can change the default by selecting the file outside of LW, then going to menu File>Properties>Open with & then choose your application to open that type of file. There's another option that says Open all files with ... so choose that one & it will become the default app for that type of file. You would do that with each type of file you want another app to open with instead. Another player with built-in codecs & is free is VLC: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (choose nearest mirror site) I hope that answers your question.

This is the option window. Select Change & the other options will show. That's just an example.
