can't play the same movie anymore

[massimiliano]

I've downloaded from winmx 50.000k of a movie, I played it in divx player to check it and it worked fine, I've downloaded the rest, and now it doesn't work anymore divx player says "failed to open..." I can't understand what happened

[chickeneater]

try loading it into different players(wmp 6.4, bsplayer...)
or load it into virtualdup and seee if it works.

I've tried, media player encounters an unknown error real one player plays it but with shadows and immages delay when I played it with divx player it was fine so I know that the movie is ok(but I got this problem for a lot of movies media doesn't work real plays it with images delay and shadows and diivx plays it fine)
I've tried to run it with GSpot and it says thal all the codecs are installed but it says that
VFW_E_CANNOT_RENDER- No combination of fillters.... (more)

[chickeneater]

possibly try the ffdshow if not already installed

[massimiliano]

Already got it !
The thing that drives me crazy is that
I SAW 10 MINUTES OF THIS MOVIE USING DIVX PLAYER AND NOW THAT I GOT ALL OF IT I CAN'T SEE IT ANYMORE
Anyway thank's to all of you guys, if you think of something else let me know, bye!

" 'failed to open...' "

Sounds like a corrupt (or incomplete) file...

[digitaldick]

more about that.....

Hey massimiliano- any news to report? I'm wondering if you gave up and deleted that movie or what? I'm actually hopeful that you discovered a way to repair it so it finally played for you, like maybe using a program like DivFix?

Hope that you will post back!

For each of the video file, do the following:
1. Load up the AVI file into GSpot and post a screenshot of the information displayed here.

Alternatively:
1. Open the file in Virtualdub
2. Go to File -> File Information
3. Post what information you see here
