This reminds me of the time I used to use my dial-up connection to download movies on t'internet at uni ((obviously amateur movies that had never been released at the cinema and were completely legal to download)). It used to take a week or so constantly connected, and once I had one where I couldn't find the right codec to play it. I was so annoyed.

Hi gavo, i've yet to find a file that VLC media player cannot open. It has a full set of video codecs, and can indeed open the Reverse a word video, however you may just want the DivX codec for this particular video. The video clips did previously state what codecs were needed, however this information seems to have gone.
