Ok this is winding me up now. I have a Smallville episode Lockdown with the file name "Smallville_5x11_Lockdown_HDTV_xvid_XOR".
I have all the Codecs i think i will need for Media player, Including Xvid codec from http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/
I have even tried to open the file in VLC Player with no Joy.

The error is C00D1199: Cannot play the file
I just dont know what to do next..

If VLC won't play it then my guess is it's corrupt. Try getting it again, or an alternative version.

I presume you have looked at http://www.xvidmovies.com/faq/

- did you try the sample file?

has to be a corrupted/incomplete download, then, as your system obviously has the xvid codec installed ok.

- you could try their recommendation to re-index, if it is incomplete, but they also warn you can completely junk the file by trying it ....

I've given up on torrents, for now, I could never get decent speeds, and I found it frustrating when TV series were taking a week to download 7Gig, that you couldn't view individual episodes until the whole lot was complete.
