I download some movies and when I play them it doesn't have video and the lengh of it says like hundreds, sometimes over 2,000 minutes. Are these files fake? Do I need a special codec? thanks for any help

Could just be a sound file. Can you give an example - file name, expected file, file type, where you got it from...

It could also be a codec problem. Most commen are divx, xvid, 3vix.

Get the K-Lite codec pack (from here: Edskes (http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/finalbuilds.htm)) and sometimes file is being shown like that (my Ghost in the Shell is supposed to be more then 4 hours)
