I don't know if this is the forum to ask this. If its not, my apologies in advance.
Someone gave me a .wmv file but everytime I try to open it in VLC, the msg:
"To view this movie you need to download MovieXPlayer." then VLC hangs. It then directs me to a page where it says I have to pay $9.95 to download the player. I find this a rip off as there are tons of FREE players out there. It's saved as a wmv file so why are they blocking it that you need to pay $9.95?
Any input guys? Thanks for the help
