My VLC 2.1.1 played these without a hitch. What version do you have?
BTW, thanks for the Mozart at KMZT!
Hmmm . . Lots of VLC succes stroies here. Sadly, not for me.
I got interested in VLC, and d/l the installer (vlc-2.1.1-win32.exe).
Ran it, and got this message: "The version of this file is not
compatible with the version of the Windows you're using". The message
then referred to 32 vs. 64 bit. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit. This
surprised me, since I thought I was running (and could run) both 32 and
64 bit programs (e.g. SeaMonkey is 32, isn't it?).
Searched the VLC Web site and couldn't find a reference to this problem
nor a reference to a 64-bit installer, so seem to be stuck.
Did any of you encounter anything like this?
no, but I always grab the .7z instead of the installer.
Any suggestions?
try http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/2.1.1/win64/
Altho I just tried the 32 & 64 bit version of VLC on Win 7 & both
worked for me.
Try getting the .zip or .7z and installing it yourself (which is just
unzipping into a new folder somewhere). If you still get the 'this
version is not..' you might need to get the Windows Visual C 2008 or
2010 redistributable & install that.

Maybe a bit beyond my skill level. Probably intimidated by the long
list where you referred me. Do you mean get the Win 64 .zip or .7z? What
about the win 64.exe? Do any of these require an installer, or is it
included? Then I'll try it, as the only pointer I've seen so far.
vlc-2.1.0-win32.exe installed and ran fine for me on my Win 7 64-bit
system. Didn't realize there was a 64-bit version. Just upgraded last
week using their internal "check for updates" feature, no issues there
either.
Interesting that the zip versions at their site are nearly twice as big
as the exe versions. I thought zip was supposed to be a compression
utility. But that's off-topic, eh?
