computer guru`s help

[Lee]

Right a "friend" of mine may have downloaded a couple of films, but he can only get the sound to work on them in media player but no picture comes up on the screen.

If anyone could help im sure he would be a happy chappy:D

Download VLC player, plays anything.

sounds like codec problems mate.

[JCJC]

Look at the last letters after the name, like .divx .wmv .mp4

like everything else the player has to match, he may have to transcode,

look at http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net

Cheap TV Divx players are around, when Aldi had one it was £21 plays any media file straight off disc from PC or a memory card, saves a lot of encoding, my favourite codec pack is klite total, anything will play anything then, even nero plays flv files:D
