animesuki

[iter itineris]

Okay, I have heard from this list that animesuki was a good place to download legal unlicensed anime. I went and downloaded an AVI file but when I try to open it I get this error: "Cannot play back the video stream: no suitable decompressor could be found."

Does anyone know how to play these files? I have the Windows Media Player as updated as it can be. I did some research on the internet but without any real answers. Those that have used this before, how did you get it to work?

Thanks!

did you also download the bittorrent program needed to download those files?

Great! That did the trick! It will now play my downloads.

Yep, it was a matter of the player not reading the download, not a matter of it not downloading. Thanks for helping though

I know this isn’t really anime specific, and may best be asked in a technical forum. But like me, I’m sure other people here have pondered this question if not found a good solution to it. I did some Google searching but would like to know recommendations from someone who has done it before.

I got the anime .avi downloaded on my computer, I also got it to play thanks to armed2010. Now, I don’t particularly want to watch it on my 17” monitor at my desk, I’d rather have it on my theater system. How do I get these to play on my DVD player? I know there is a way to convert it to an mpeg format and put them on CD-Rs. I’m just not sure the best way to go about that. My DVD player reads CD-R and can take DVD, VCD and SVCD formats. Anyone here find a good program or way of getting this to work?

Thanks!

Get a DVD player with .avi support or get a cipped Xbox . Or just use your video out on your graphics card to watch it on the tv but still use your comp as the player.

I don't know if there is a really simple way of converting .avi to svcd. Sorry to say that someone else will have to answer this.

Encoding is evil, but you could try a VCD, or if you have a dvd burner, encode it for that. I hope you enjoy waiting...

Nero Burning ROM is a good tool if you want to give it a go. I can't guarentee that it works (it didn't the one time I tried it).
