    why wont it play ??

    i have some divx files, but they wont play windows media player tries to get the codecs but they don't help, the video plays but not the audio

    any one any clues or any codecs that will help the situation ??

    cheers

    Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.

    What you speak of is DRM(digital rights management) it's old news, and can be disabled.

    Although, in the EULA, they have the right to 'update' your files as they deem fit, and who knows what they could change.
