I'm guessing that this is another file to the one you opened when testing the "player"? If it is the same one, then my guess is that the "player" is very buggy. > Now, I don't know what any of this means - I don't know programming. > Can anyone please help? Well, normally speaking I would say throw it away, and use MPlayer, however MPlayer is probably not exactly what you are looking for as it requires compiling and so on. If you get back to us as to which player (preferrably a download site / homepage) I can have a look for you. greetings Ralph -- Homepage: http://tuxpower.f2g.net/
