My Friend Has downloaded a few films off various torrent websites which he has paid for however they will not play on windows media player. well they do but its a 10 secound clip telling him to download another play to watch the film. is there a way around this as this happend twice to him and its asked for two different players. the whole file content is there is is there a way u can sort of hack it. as it is an avi file however in the file discription it just comes up as video clip |

It seems strange to me that your friend download films off a torrent website but still managed to pay for them somehow. I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think you're permitted to talk about torrents here on the site. (I'm not a 100% sure since I can't access the rules page). However, I recommend you download VLC Player to play your films. VLC Media Player It Wont Work , And He Pays To Use The Torrents I Dont Know He Just Asked Me , I Get The Same Thing On Multiple Players Asking Me To Download Another player just to play this film its like then have locked it some how to only play on there software if thats even possible Sounds like your friend is getting some dodgy torrents to me. I'd recommend downloading them from a different site or a different uploader. I haven't come across a video format of my own that will not play on VLC to date. there not dodgey its just that he needs that program to watch it , some what of an advertising scam i think for a company to boost there sales the player costs 5 pounds or sommit , he paid it and it works, however he got a different one and it requires a different player for the same price . so are they locking the files to there players ? Looks like that's what they're doing, looks like a scam. I'd recommend you download them from a different source. |

Buying films from a torrent site isn't likely legal, no. Sounds to me like your friend goes to one of those dodgy places, pays a very low price (instead of the amount the movies SHOULD cost) and then gets a borked file in return. Not cool. This discussion is closed. Your friend's file isn't legal, and we're not going to help him figure out how to watch it. |
also when u try to convert the file it just gives u the 60mb clip of the video saying to watch use coral player its like they have partitioned the file or something ?? help and it will only work with that player
How do you pay for Torrents, Are you sure that your friend did not just tell you that he did? I feel this is a illegal discussion...
I Dont Know He Just Said He Pays For It Its Not Me Its A Media Related Question not like i am asking for torrent etc , its just about the file
Okay......
Thank you Kat. I wasn't sure what to do there.
