I haven't had much luck watching movies. I tried avilfiles, mplayer, and xine. The file types I was trying to play were MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4, and MPEG4-edit.
I wanted to watch a movie about Japan, so after searching for "Japan" here:
http://www.archive.org/movies/prelinger.php
I took the first link which is this movie:
http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=prelinger&collectionid=19296
I downloaded every version of it, and haven't been able to watch any of them. I tried some other movies, with the same results. Basically, I get the sound along with a blue video.
Can someone try to download a movie and tell what they had to do to be able to view it? I'm still not sure if I am supposed to install the codecs seperately, or maybe copy some files over from my old Windows installation.
