    Hey i recently downloaded the Divx version of Jarhead from mininova and i can get it to do anything. It came in like 20 rar files all about 20 megs.

    I then extracted the first rar to the desktop as instructed by me friend and when i tried to play it nothing happens. My DiVX player stalls and i have to ctal-alt-del it to close it. I have tried to burn it but i dunno what program i need to convert it.

    Have i downloaded my first ever movie and it is a dud? Or am i doing something wrong?

    *Edit: It was a screener, whatever that is.

    What did you use to extract?
    What I do is double click on any rar,that opens it(in Winrar)then click on the avi file(or whatever)and extract that to a folder you've made called films on your desktop.
    You should be left with an avi file in your film folder which you play with VLCor media player classic.

    All spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in my post's are intentional.

    also make sure you have the klite codec pack installed. just a thought having no codec to play it can cause some players to just sit there and freak out.
