Hey guys
I have just downloded the most recent episode of Prison Break. This is in a .avi file and when I click on the file (it is on windows media player) I can only hear the sound in media player and no pictures. Any ideas?
Thanks

To prevent this from causing you problems in the future, you should download an application called Gspot.
It analyses a video file and tells you what codecs are needed to play it, and whether you have these codecs (both audio and video) on your computer.
If the computer cannot play the file, it will tell you the name of the codec you need to download in order to play it properly.

Could be that the correct codec is not installed on your computer.
You can try installing XVID codec:

OR, ffdshow (takes care of multiple codecs):
