How to watch dowloaded anime 101:



First you need to realise that your going nowhere fast with windows media player, its junk for anime watching purposes.



Anime is usually found in one of the following 3 formats: RMVB, AVI, MKV. To play an RVMB file (which are usually small but lower quality) you will need Realplayer, just the basic free player will do, which you can download here.



http://www.real.com/realplayer/free-media-player



For the higer quality filetypes, i reccomend either Zoomplayer which is great if you wan to watch anime in the corner of the screen while you do something else due to its small menu area. Or VLC media player, which is a bit bigger than zoom player but is still fine for watching. ide actually reccomend VLC as zoomplayer is having trouble displaying subtitles these days.

IF you REALLY REALLY want to use windows media player (and even if you dont ide 100% reccomend this) you can get all the codecs youll ever need in the CCCP (combined community codec pack), its a codec package designed specifically to support anime filetypes (ittl even support the more obscure ones like OOG)

All programs are free.

You won't be able to find one, the problem is with Windows Media Player, not the video. Windows Media Player doesn't come with the codecs required to play most file formats when it's installed. You can add the codecs (they decode the file and play it) for free or just download a new player.



I suggest you just download the VLC Player. It will only take about 2 minutes to download, install, and start playing the files. All the codecs come already installed so you don't have to worry about that. I haven't come across a file I can't play with VLC.

Or you could find the codec you're missing with Windows Media Player, download and apply it, which would take longer.

You can download VLC. Here is a good link: http://bit.ly/1lqgEkM



VLC (Video lan connect player) is a great free opensource software. VLC has a built in dvd decoder and can play pretty much any media file. Some formats it can play: MOV WMV AVI DVD MPEG MP4 VOB 3GP MPG.



When Windows Media player doesn't work, use VLC.

I highly recommend VLC over any other media player.

in case you having difficulty with playback or the enjoying of archives you subject maximum like isn't the archives themselves however the actual incontrovertible fact that your pc lack the mandatory formats to play the archives wisely. i could purely acquire and installation on the my many multi codec packs that are accessible. Like CCCP, KLM etc. or purely use a extra helpful participant featuring codec like VLC, zoom etc. desire this facilitates.
