    I have 5 files all AVI that won't play. They did at one time but not now. I have tried Gspot and another video codec resource tool and both tell me that I need a 4cc codec VSMC. I have even tried to use videofix.com tool to repair but no go. When I view the contents of the files in notepad they show all the symbols and text of a video file and are all about 19 mgs a piece. I know there is someone much smarte then me in here that can help me please.
