Solved Video isn't opening

Your link didn't work for me, so I'm not sure what it was supposed to show, but I can tell you that some videos (like, for example, full length movies) do take an hour or sometimes longer to download, so that's not unusual.

But if you think the problem is the media player, although both Media Player and RealPlayer are fine, why not try VLC? It works very well and seems to be very popular. (VideoLAN - VLC: Free streaming and multimedia solutions for all OS!)

"The media type of this file is not recognised" ( It contains unexpected data and may be corrupt ) That is what the screenshot shows.

What is the file extension? What does it contain? Media info can show it to you. Download from MediaInfo and then let us know.

That's .mkv (matroska file). It's strange that other player can't play it. I'm opening it with Gom Player. Also Media Player Classic should open it.

I guess that the file is big. So it will take lot of time. Gom is opening .mkv without any problem. I'm watching .mkv files. ;)

Conversion with Format Factory is relatively fast - at least on a higher end CPU - especially quad cores.

Well, what the difference between mkv.rar and srt.rar ?

.mkv (matroska file) is video file,and .srt is for subtitles.
That .rar at the end,is that you have put them in archive.

I reached this step ..
UploadPic.org - Picture Viewer - uploadpic.org
What to do next??

I presume that you have downloaded a split mkv file from Mediafire.In that case, these files are usually split into less than 200MB chunks using HJSplit.( The upload limit for a single file to Mediafire is 200MB.)

You have to download HJSplit and join them using this tool to get the full mkv file.You will then be able to play this mkv file.

More after I return from an outstation trip.
