Hi Jeff, If i were to keep the VLC Media Player how do you get it to play the full movie? It would keep getting stuck on the theme preview to the movie, but would not move forward and I could not find anywhere how to play, stop, forward, rewind, etc. Thank you and also thank you for the suggestion regarding WMP.
