Title: Movie Downloading Help -- Pt 2
Post by: Noon Bank$ on June 04, 2004, 08:17:15 PM

I downloaded "Man On Fire".

Unzipped it.. Then unzipped the zipped files in each folder (CD1, CD2, CD3). Then I burned CD1, CD2, and CD3. I put CD1 in- played. I went and watched it. Then I put CD2 in....It makes the DVD player on my computer pop up but it doesnt actually play anything. The same goes for CD3.

Then I put CD2 back in, went into My Computer, opened up the drive and moved the vcd file to the desktop. Renamed it CD2.mpg and I also did the same for CD3.

It still wont play. WTF? Its a good ass movie so far.

Help..  >:(

Sounds like maybe u didn't get the full thing downloaded or something. Sometimes if you don't get the full file it won't play any of that file. I know I've experienced that on more than one occasion. I went back and made sure that I downloaded the full file the second time around and it worked like charm :)
