    torrent files that i have downloaded will not paly thru windows media player only thru the divx player. everytime i try to do anything with the file a window pops up say there was a problem the window must close. I do not understand what is going on. can;t convert to dvd or anything. but it will play thru divx player and burn to a disk thru the divx player. any ideas what the problem could be?

    So you've downloaded video file(s) and some or all won't play? sounds like a CODEC issue. Use this LINK and try the fourth one down.

    Howd you go?
