I was told that VLC Player would play just about anything especially a .avi file. I down loaded it even went into the setup and checked .avi in the configuration area. This file still won't run. the file was copied from a computer that the file does work on. Any help is greatly appreciated.

In VLC, you should have a "Media Information" menu somewhere. See what it says.
AVI files can be encoded, and therefore require an additional codec installed on the computer to play.

This is true, VLC WILL play just about anything and if it can't I would wonder if you have a corrupt AVI in the first place. Does a particular error pop up when trying to play or does VLC just hang? Did you already try other media player apps?Quote:

It could be the flux capacitor. I'd check that first.
It likely needs a firmware update.Quote:
