I hate ms products anyway, but there are film files that I can only get in .wmv.... they are encoded at 250 but are choppy all the way through and no sound!

what to do?

is it the file or the player??

thanks

also, why can't i drag them into IE... i think i used to be able to do that> or was that netscape?

Well, MS products are usually a hassle to use...
What hardware are you on? iBook, iMac, Powermac? What version of WMP? How much RAM/VRAM do you have and how much is given to WMP?

General advice would be to give WMP a bigger chunk of memory, lowering from millions to thousands of colors, quitting all applications but WMP etc.

This is a long shot, but you can try to change the connection setting in WMP to something really high... This is an MS product we're talking about.
