Anyone else have problems with the HL2 trailer?

[grunjee]

(HL2 = Half-Life 2)

You know the one where it starts on a bridge or something, and the guy shoots a barrel.

I've downloaded it from a couple different places, my brother has too. The thing plays for about 5 seconds, then the video freezes. Audio keeps playing though. Have tried WMP and Divx player.

Anyone know what's going on? Or better yet, have a link to somewhere with a working version? Thanks.

Try and use the fourCC Changer.

I had to change the FourCC to DivX.

Hope that helps

I downloaded it, and tried about every combination in that program. Still can't get it to work right. Which settings did you use on the two options?

The HL2 trailers I downloaded were on quicktime format. Are you guys sure you have quicktime installed?

The one I got was AVI and Destiny media player worked fine.

It was from fileplanet.

I had the same problem with the trailer on my lap top. But it worked on my main system and my friends winME system.
