videolan is a media player... just like the player you used to watch the movie before the rollback...

the codecs won't mess up your copy of the movie....

the codecs are used to play the movie in your pc.... if your friend has his codecs correctly installed in his pc, the movie will play fine, if you or him want to play the movie in a dvd player (has to be able to read vcd and svcd) it will play fine....

i recently messed up the codecs in my pc... big pain in the ass... too bad i can't remember how i fixed it.... try reinstalling all your media players... like windows media player, real player... it might help...

you'll find more help in the codecs forum here at filesharingtalk.com

The codec you need is Xvid, it tells you that in the name of the file.

SpiderMan.2.SVCD.TELESYNC-VideoCD.XviD.Re-Enc.WeBsEcReTa.avi

EDIT: It also has the names of other formats in the name, but if it has a .AVI extension it won't be an SVCD or VCD as they are mpeg formats, so it has to be an Xvid (which is an AVI).
