I downloaded a movie a little while ago but it's not playing. It told me that I had to download a codec or something. I did that but it still won't play.

The progress bar shows it's trying to display something but it only lasts 2 seconds. It did the same thing when it told me about the codec. That time, it displayed the message but there's no message this time, just black.

It's a 799.9 megabyte movie that I'd really like to see.

what are you trying to play it in? what is the file? avi? divx? etc...

This should be the only codec pack you need. http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Cod ... l_in_1.htm

I once had that problem but downloaded a codec and it was fine...

Could it be a corrupt file?
