whats the best thing to view them?
sometimes media player does it, but not always. ive got a converter but as its only the trial version it adds a line in the middle of the video, spoiling it all downloaded a full version of a divx/avi player, but even that wouldnt play the file! looked like a shit program though. any ideas!?

What is it you've downloaded? There must be something wrong with the file rather than the player. Not sure if there are tools available to scan avi files for errors etc?

It could be a knackered file but you could try this http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ It checks the avi for you and tells you whether you have the correct codec installed and where to get it if you haven't.
