If VLC doesn't play it, I would strongly suspect the file.

But I'm sure Rod will be along any moment to help you out further.

You're right.  There are a thousand things that can go wrong with video on a pc, though.  And if VLC won't play a file, it almost always means the file is corrupted or nonstandard somehow.  Congratulations on getting it working though.

really dont think its corrupt as any h264 file from the cctv does not work, I have asked before..
