How to Play Almost Any Movie in Windows

Hackers Movie PosterYou've got a shiny Windows computer with an icon labeled "Media Player" and a video to play. Odds are, it won't. Windows Media Player by default only understands a very small subset of the possible formats that are out there - and most of that subset is unpopular. Watching movies under Windows really isn't that difficult though.

  1. Download the Combined Community Codec Pack
  2. Your movie should work.
  3. If not, download the DivX codec.
  4. Your movie should work. Tada!

If at all possible, try to use the program Media Player Classic which comes with the CCP.


Flatland

Holy crap, so something just popped up on my radar that happens to be a movie I would be willing to purchase. It seems that there is in the process of being made, a movie adaptation of Edwin A. Abbot's flatland. Yae for fucking with people's concepts of dimensions!
