Unusual Problem that shows up in the middle of a vid

[bartboy9891]

I was playing Apocalypse Clarkson in WMP, and it plays fine until the 18:46 mark.
then there is an error that doesnt let it play :?
any suggestions on how to fix it up.

.avi? Divfix or run it through vlc.

Its actually a .WMV file, this is the first time that i've had problems with a .WMV. :?

yes, its the full video. it just stops around the 19minute mark.
and VLC does the same.

I'm having this problem with an avi file right now.

i'm still not sure what happened, i redownloaded it and it now works :?
i downloaded many diffferent repair programs and none of them worked.

Some torrent programs report that a file has been fully downloaded when in fact there are still bits that haven't come down. A WMV file cannot handle this too well and just stops dead at that point...

I always try to get the torrent program to recheck the downloaded file when this happens - though to be honest this hasn't happened to me in a long time...
