urgent question

[Jae]

I downloaded a movie from limewire and it is an avi type. When i clicked on it to watch it[with winap] nothing shows up on the screen; i can only hear the sound. I would try to play it on my WMP, but i already downloaded it in limewire and i don't know how to play the movie in any other way. Can anyone help? thanks

The movie is in the folder you set the downloads to go to. Sounds like you have a video codec missing.

Do you have the necessary codec?

DivX Video Player - DivX Video Codec - DivX Converter <-- check it out.

 

[peterhuang913]

yea, divx is the main codec pirates use, seconded by Xvid
omg, i just notice that divx backwards is xvid

i downloaded it in limewire. in limewire, it's under the category "videos"..i can't reach it through any other way

Doesnt Limewire download all files to a shared folder? Shouldn't you be able to access that video via that folder?

 

[peterhuang913]

thats the shared folder i was referring to
omg! if your going to pirate do it properly
Limewire>top tab: library>explore button
