Well the version of Gone in 60seconds sucks cause I downloaded it and it wont play on my windows media player, but there are a ton of movies and all sorts of stuff on...If anyone has a simple way of converting DVD's into a avi or mpeg format let me know

What does it say when it won't play?

 

[TxCollegeguy]

doesn't say anything, when mediaplayer pulls it up all I hear is sound, I downloaded an AVI player and it does the same thing...

You don't have the right codecs that's all. Codecs are need to play AVI. An AVI is a compressed movie file and a codec opens it up, so to speak. Also you may not have the lastest version of media player. That's either 6.4 or 7.2 depending on what kind of system and video card you have. I went through the exact same problem before and now I haven't found a movie yet I couldn't play with media player.

first I uninstalled and download and reinstalled the lastest media player for my system.

I also downloaded the needed codecs. The reason I uninstalled media player is because the codecs wouldn't take. Any codec that you might need should be here.

I'll give it up to http://www.kaazaa.com http://www.musiccity.com , they're basic the same program and use the same servers and my 2nd fav, but winmx is the best IMO because there are so many more servers and thus more files availble but kaazaa connection and completion rate is definately higher.

TxCollegeguy,

Did you get a chance to play with the codecs?
