First, the Windows Media Player attempts to download some codec from microsoft, then this error comes out.

"Cannot open 'E:\Safri_Duo-Played-a-live-Only.mpeg'. Please verify that the path and filename are correct and try again.

Suggestion: Check the web site or content source for information about playing this content."

I have already install DivX3.11, does it matter?

Do me a favor and find out exactly how many bytes this file is.. Do a search for this file and double check its location.

You could also just try downloading the WinMedia Player 7, but I suspect you need either a new codec that's not on the website or something went screwy on the download...

Cheers,
