Hi......I downloaded a movie and it seems to be an unsupported format for Windows Media Player. I believe it to be an .asf file and I downloaded the K-lite Codec Pack but that hasn't helped. The downloaded movie file is over 300,000kb but all I can watch is the 2:30 preview(Dawn of the Dead). Any help would be appreciated.

advance streaming format or something like that, GSpot (http://www.headbands.com/gspot/) will tell you which codec you need to play it prolly, or a mega codec pack should sort you out ;)

Don't download ASF / ASX / WMA / WMV, they usually have DRM up the ass.

Microsoft MPEG-4 Video Codec V2 plays asf files through WMP (if you must download 'em!

If you haven't got this codec WMP ought to search and download it.
