hi gurus:)
i have an AVI file. It is supposed to be a movie. I want to play it
with a Vplayer(or other). The is about 700 MB. When I play it there is
no movie I wanted but a 5 minutes trash instead(black-white dotted
screen).

I look at the settings of this AVI and I see:
video data rate: 1929 kbit/s
audio bit rate: 1411 kbit/s
and the codec says: Cinepak Codec

All other AVIs I habe are:
video: about 100 kbit/s
audio: about 100 kbit/s

My question is what I need to do to watch this movie. Do I need a
special codec?
As far as I know Cinepak Codec is a standard codec for Windows.
The way I see it the file is compressed but I do not know how to
decompress it.

please help

regards

Cinepak is good for artificial pictures like CAD etc.

The Cinepak codec is an old avi codec that has poor compression and
quality when compared to today's codecs. It sounds like you have a
garbage file. It must have its header set to show as Cinepak since if
it was for a codec you don't have you would have received a message.
Your standard Windows operating system will have the Cinepak codec for
its movie player so I don't think that's the problem. I think you just
have garbage. Sorry about that.

thanks for all answers,
here some additional info.
I think the movie has been screened in the movies lately, because the
title is flight plan. Is it possible that I have to manipulate it to be
able to watch it?

Another off topic question maybe:
Is there a way(a program) to find out about the settings of the movie.
But not the standard way of windows settings.

best regards and thanks again

wasting their time......
