*sigh* An hour into Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust the video locked up on me. So I try opening the file again, figuring I'll just "fast forward" to approximately the right spot and see if it's a file corruption or the player going weird. Winamp says, "nuh uh, no skipping ahead" and blithely plays on from the beginning. So I open in Media Player which says "you know, the extension on this file doesn't match what it is, but I'm not going to tell you what it should be" and I say "play the damn thing anyway" and it does, but it apparently talked to Winamp because it's not letting me skip ahead either.

Now the movie was okay as far as I saw, but not so good that I'm going to sit through it for a hour watching what I've already seen just to see if I can actually watch the rest or if I need to retransfer the file.

So, any recommendations on software to watch avi/mpg/video in general that is free and not Windows Media Player or Winamp?

Psionicist You scored 27 Holy, 54 Tactful, 75 Natural, and 55 Arcane!

Your eye flutters for a second and the world loses focus... when clarity returns you realize that the only person in the room who wasn't knocked unconscious is holding his temples and writhing on the ground. Nobody knows what you just did, even you, but you know it happened because you made it happen. You have taught reality that your desires are more important than it's fickle laws (or you can, rather). You are one of the rare psionicists, the masters of mind over matter. Your approach to problems is a rare blend of intuition, force of personality, and careful planning. You're all right in a fight, but can really hold your own only once you've stacked the laws of this universe on your side. Thankfully, with practice, you can do this with ease. Hmm, my guess is that you're a bit lacking ethically speaking however... just a guess though, creep.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 25% on Godliness You scored higher than 75% on Tact You scored higher than 50% on Harmony You scored higher than 75% on Arcane
