I recently dled the movie 28 weeks later, and have been problems trying to play it. I have the program GSPOT but that hasn't really helped me. The file plays but I can only hear the audio..no video. I've looked at the post by 'tpfreyer' b/c his problem seemed similar to mine, but I'm not sure which codecs I should dl...since I'm not sure which ones I'm missing The file is avi format and is entitled..28weeks.TS.XviD.Mp3-SFO.avi The problem is, when trying to play it with Media Player Classic, I get this message : " MPC could not render some of he pins int he graph, you may not have the needed coes or filters installed on the system."

Well it isn't Xvid. The fourCC is "FMP4" which means it was encoded using libavcodec's MPEG-4 encoder. For directshow based playback you could use ffdshow or change the fourCC to XVID, DIVX or DX50.
