a possible solution make a copy of the file (keep original ) take the copy run it thru divfix to fix the index then play the file..hope it works worth a try...

You can't preview movies from BT because BT downloads them in parts. So you make have a piece of the beginning and a few parts from the middle. It won't play.

whenever i preview, i only see parts of the movie, i guess these are the piece files

Hi,

What are you previewing for? To see if it is real? I have never downloaded a fake file from BT, one problem that you might run into is the language of the movie or program may not be included in the file name, that might screw you up!

AVI Preview C will allow you to preview AVI's

With ABC after you downloaded some mb put the file in pause and run Videolan .Its working for me.
