This is what happens when I try to open it.
I just tried running an mp4 through GSpot and it apparently doesn't read them, despite what their download page states. Sorry about that. Anyway, I'm guessing the file may be corrupt since not even the great and powerful VLC player could get it to run.

If you have the time you might try downloading it again.

seconded. The file is corrupt, or your system needs a reinstall.

Before Reinstalling I'd try to download it again.
Then try doing a Repair before doing a Reinstall :eek: .

as far as im aware, that is a fake file. The last one i obtained in that format was just the trailer repeated over and over again. Also have heard rumours of just a data file containing just gibersih going arround some torrent sites, but cant confirm that from eprsonal expereince. Wouldnt hold my hopes too high on obtaining expelled before it goes out on dvd through those sources.

and don't just do a reinstall. do a repair install. It looks like the file you got is bunk. But if you ever have a problem, do a repair install. It was the only way to fix my directx problem.

Get CCCP, http://www.cccp-project.net/ while it's main purpose is for anime fans to have a codec pack that can run anything on Media Player Classic while giving good performance too - It's good for everything else too - The only thing I can't get it to run are .ram files so far and who the hell uses that.

did you try "real alternative"?

my computer runs just about everything with minimal codecs. (I dont want to seem like im bragging, i'm just sharing my experience that have worked for myself. Its a stable system with minimal conflicts)

i use media player classic. I have a xvid codec to run all divx coedecs, I have a ogg codec, I use real alternative, quicktime alternative, wmv lite, and ffd show. I also installed all the newer windows media player codecs for 6.4 from Microsoft website. My computer doesn't have any windows media player installed except for 6.4 (using nlite), My video card has a bug where it wont play quicktimes within an internet browser so I use "media player connectivity" for fire fox.

All my videos run in mpc now. even the ones within firefox.

Thats really all you need. I have had experiences with codec packs breaking windows. sometimes they uninstall necessary files. other times they add codecs and conflict with ones already installed. Its might work with a fresh install of windows, but codec packs are risky on a computer with codecs already installed on it. It can cause crackling and poping. Frustrating if its for first time getting that kind of thing. it can take forever to find the problem. especially when you dont know that conflicting codecs can do that kind of thing.
