I downloaded a movie with azureus and when it was done i used NTI CD + DVD Maker 7 to burn all of the files onto a DVD-R. Is there something else I had to do because I get sound but no picture when I play it. When I load it on Windows Media Player it says error downloading codec. What does this mean, and what should i do?

Or if those dont work (doubtful) try Media Player Classic (available here at aD) which is just as good as VLC but doesnt play image files (bin, cue)

it was an AVI file so i downloaded the real player and tried to play it on that and it still would not work. It just said this file could not be played.

You should (propably) also install some codecs to your computer, also available at aD. VLC and Media Player Classic usually do the tricks, try them.
