Hiya Columbo, been a while;

Hi Staf, nice to meet ya.

yes VLC is great, I haven't found an AVI it can't play yet.

some codec packs are great too even come with Real Media Alternative and Quicktime alternative, all play from media player classic.


Nice one

If you hav DivX player on your pc, use that, works great, If not, download the latest one, then go onto limewire and download the serial key for "Pro DivX", insert and you are on your way!
