    I've downloaded the entire series of "The Tripods"... The only problem is half the episodes play, and half don't.

    I've tried using GSpot to look at the files but this doesn't help me. I'm wondering if someone can point me in the right direction.

    If we start with one that does not play:-

    Now one that does play:-

    They're obviously very different files, but any idea what I can do to get the ones that don't play, to play?

    I suspect it's something to do with the audio because if I load one of the problem AVIs into a video editing package the video can be seen, but the audio not heard!

    ps: I've got the latest DivX codecs loaded.

    You've answered the question yourself.
    You need the codec for the audio file that wont play.
