.avi file plays upside down!!??

[sammi_aaron]

Hi...I am just looking for some help. I downloaded an .avi file, went to watch it and it is playing upside down and back to front...and no, lol I ain't turning the monitor upside down and using a mirror to watch it!!

I am playing the file through winamp...could someone please tell me what the problem is most likely to be and how I can solve this problem!!

Thanking you kindly and I await your response!!

play the file in the Windows Media player 6.4
start-->run--> mplayer2.exe

The problem is WinAmp - play it in ANY OTHER player...

I never had any problems in winamp; it should still play upright =/

Have you by any chance download the infamousNimo Pack ?

LOL, you're not gonna turn your monitor upside down eh? When we were at CPL my neighbor couldn't figure out why his video was upside down, and determined to watch LoTR, he flipped that mofo on over; I was thoroughly amused.

Thanks in solving my 'mystery'

Hi everyone

I just wanted to say thank you to all who offered me their helpful suggestions in solving my prob with my .avi file playing upside down in winamp.

As someone suggested, play it in anything OTHER than winamp....the file plays perfect in windows media player. Always a simple solution, the one you never think of!!

Thanks again everyone for your kind help!!

PS) Now I am bugged as to WHY it plays upside down in winamp...must be some wierd winamp phenomenon..lol.

Yeah, I'd stay away form winamp3 - it's slow and the attempt at playing video files is poor.

2.81 was the last 2.x version to be released - u can get that from the normal website.
