- drusilla - 03-06-2003
so i downloaded a video, but the Damn thing won't play with a picture.
i have download codecs automatically checked.
& on the computer that it plays on, it says codec unknown, so i can't figure out how to get the Damn thing to work.
quicktime plays it without the picture aol media player & divx won't even open the Damn file.

Download the divx player from divx.com.. if that doesn't fix it, there is a codec pack on microsofts website.

i think if you take a picture of your delicious knockers and post them in this thread it should work.
- HollywoodJewMoses - 03-06-2003
you probably need the XVID codec, its the newest divx codec
you can get it at divx-digest.com
now you owe me sex if it works
- drusilla - 03-06-2003
so i'm leaning back a little in the picture.
it still doesn't work. & i downloaded divx last night too & that didn't work either. i'm gonna try the other thing you said.

If that doesn't work download this player
VLC player
If that doesn't play it your file might be corrupted
- drusilla - 03-06-2003
i have no idea what i'm doing
- LyricalGomez - 03-06-2003
Download that player, it plays pretty much any type of media file, so if it doesn't work with that your file is most likely corrupted.
What is the file btw and where did you get it?
- drusilla - 03-06-2003
nothing important, just that this shit happens a lot with downloads & it pissed me off

The wave of disappointment that washed over me when dru's picture wouldn't load, I right-clicked it to open it in it's own window, and saw that it was called "turtleneck." :disappointed:
- LyricalGomez - 03-06-2003
Get the VLC player, it's probablly the best thing I've ever downloaded, it even plays bin files. It was developed by a bunch of students who got sick and tired of downloading 50 million codecs to get a file to play.
- LyricalGomez - 03-06-2003
The pic works fine for me :clueless:
- Danked - 03-06-2003
Just took awhile, I grew impatient. :-D
- drusilla - 03-06-2003
sorry danked, that's all i have. i'm not one for showing off the goods completely.
yeah, it says it performed an illegal operation & shuts down whenever i try to open the file.
- LyricalGomez - 03-06-2003
Then your file is most likely corrupted
- drusilla - 03-06-2003
poopy
- LyricalGomez - 03-06-2003
Sorry
