Are some bad files?

[bane]

I downloaded the first season of BattleStar Galactica but I have found that though a few work great alot of them are just no picture and no sound. Are they just junk?

This is likely because you don't have the proper codecs installed.

Here are a couple links for codecs...

CCCP (best for playing of files)

http://cccp-project.net/

k lite codecs (best for playing, editing and encoding)

http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm

if you select the k lite pack, don't just install all the options, or you will surely have problems (default settings work fine for nearly every user)

If your not an expirenced user, then get the CCCP pack.

Do NOT install both
