I recently downloaded the first movie I ever saw with the xvid at the end....when I try to play them in my media player it wont work.I have like 30 diferent clips that names are ****.a.xvid.r00 the next one is ****.a.xvid.r01 and so on.I've tried downloading new codecs and installing them but nothing happens.if i try to drag the file to the player it say unable to open file.If I try to open the file it asks what program I want to open it with.I have no idea what to do..plz help...I REALLY want to see this movie...it came with a sample that plays fine but that file ends with AVI...any help will be apreciated
rename the files to drop off the file extension. If this file is a true VCID then it should play once renamed. The media player will not play it because it does not know the file extention r00 or r01. These to me sound like some kind of file splitting software tag. Try removing it and playing the file.
opps sorry I said VCID when in fact it should have been xvid. You might also check to make sure you have the right codec(s). There is a program called Gspot that works great for finding out that information.
you have a bunch of rar archives(.001,.002 etc) yes ???,which contain an avi you need "winrar" to unpack them get it,then..if you already have it,where it says "open with",find winrar,then select that right click on the first file and select extract, this will give you possibly an avi file which you can play,or convert with vso's dvixtodvd to burn onto a dvd disk
