Duties are not performed for duty's sake, but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable. A man performs but one duty - the duty of contenting his spirit, the duty of making himself agreeable to himself.

Use AsfTools (http://www.geocities.com/myasftools/) to convert it to .avi.

Windows Media Player should play it. If it doesn&#39;t it should automaticly download a codec. If it doesn&#39;t you&#39;re screwed and the files are probably broken.

presumably these are downloads mate?

to be honest, if WMP can&#39;t cope, Id guess you are screwed to be honest...as a last resort suggestion, have you tried VDub/TMPEGENC? it might work, though, to be honest I doubt it :(

and just check WMP options has "autodownload codec" checked??

Two more suggestions...

1. Try installing Media Player 7. I normally use version 6.4 (just because I like that one better), but I also have version 7 installed in a different folder. I&#39;ve downloaded .wmv files already that will not play in 6.4, but they play fine in 7. Don&#39;t ask me why. :unsure:

2. Install Windows Media Encoder (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e0ab51dc-e509-4bc2-ae47-507856f9ddc3&DisplayLang=en). It may install some new codecs, and you can use it to try re-encoding your .wmv&#39;s into (hopefully) better wmv&#39;s.
