Jarhead problem

[corpsontherun]

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 VLC (http://www.videolan.org/)or media player classic.

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.

ok i ran gspot and everything came up a-ok, and VLC runs the movie.

question is why wont Divx 6.1? arnt .avi's divx's invention?
