I just spent half my life downloading JC on CNN, and the thing won't play! I get audio, but no video. Why can't there be ONE standard player for all this stuff? Quicktime, RealPlayer, MediaPlayer...it's ridiculous! And you have to keep up with the stuff because whatever you want to download next is *guaranteed* to be incompatible with whatever the hell you already have to play it on.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Software, man.

What am I doing wrong? I'm crying. ::sob:: It's been a long day, I'm still crampy, and I'm cranky. I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I just wanna see JC. ::sobs again::

You can try playing it in a vlc player. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Is this a good one? The divx codec thing came bundled with a divx player, so now I've got like, five different media players. ;-) Since it's officially a collection, I might as well throw another one on the pile! ;-)

It's really good. If some file doesn't work with the player it's suppse to play on I'll try the vlc player and it will work.
