XVID Won't play

I have an xvid file that opens up in WMP, RealPlayer, and whatever else I try, and it stops at the first frame. No audio and no further video. I've checked it out with G-Spot, and I have all the needed codecs, but the file still refuses to play.

Has anyone seen this problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks

 

is there a possibility that the file is corrupt.Can you download it from another source

 

Nope, different sources yield the same results

 

This is an avi? Try mplayer.

 

Thanks for the suggestions. Actually, the codec was corrupt; weird, since I had only recently re-installed it...

 

good catch and you didnt even need us..............
