    Guys,
    I have downloaded some windows media (TM) movie files that I cannot playback with any of the players I have. Windows media player itself says I need to acquire licenses, but the country I am in does not allow me to access the particular websites to obtain the licenses. I can get the files to play using VLC media player, but the imgages are extremely distorted. I have tried nero show time, divx,dameon manager and quicktime, and all cannot play the files. Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    sounds like you need to install the right codecs also the file might be bad
