[Delpiero]

Just downloaded a movie from some website size 64 MB in WMV format but i cannot play it. Some colours appear while playing it. I have tried everything Vlc player,klite codec, BS player WMP9. I have divx5.11 and xvid installedas well. Is there anyway i can play it?.

[swatkat]

uninstall ALL the codec packs, DivX, WMP, Xvid and whatever multimedia player u have installed.
then only install WMP, DivX andtry to play it...

 

[vysakh]

use the GSPOT codec information from klite and find the necessary codecs

LOL, I should've guessed. DRM is Digital Rights Management, a means of protecting digital audio/video content with a "license" In simple words, the author of the content will protect the file with a DRM license, and to be able to play it, you will need to download and install the license from the site that you downloaded it from. Mostly these are protected content that require you to pay for them before you can download the license, install it and play the content. The best thing to do is to upgrade Windows Media Player to v10 if you're using Windows XP. If not, go ahead and download the additional DRM components required. That should automatically solve the problem, because when it detects protected content it will automatically try to acquire a license for it, if that option is enabled.
