*.avi and *ogm how to play them - FTP-Anime Forums

Legend_Dk · 31-03-2008, 08:04 AM

Hi i am new to this site, but signed because i want to download chobits, and so i did, but i can't play the files, i have both windows media player and winamp, but they can't play the files, so i downloaded a large codec but can't seem to figure it out since there is no instructions.
please help a wannabe bill gates here thanks.

lol, wannabe bill gates?

I'd recommend VLC player: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
It can play most files and since you want to watch anime, I can assure you it'll come in handy very often.
As for the codec, I'm not sure what you've downloaded, but I'd recommend the Combined Community Codec Pack: http://www.cccp-project.net/
And if you have trouble installing the latter, you can simply read the FAQ on that site or check their forum.
Let us know if you have any more questions/problems.

KMPlayer and U need nothing else. (don't mistake with the one under linux)

KMPlayer/SMPlayer, and K-Lite Mega. Screw the rest.
