A torrent file is just a container of data which enables BitTorrent to find the target and complete the download. You can check on this link to get some torrent players, such as Leawo Blu-ray Player and VLC and they all are free to use.

Cannot play WMV file

This is a type of video that can be played on your computer and portable media players. The most important feature of a WMV file is that its format allows large video files to be compressed, retaining the rich quality of the video. It is a file format developed to store video content in a compressed format, so that movies and other video programs can be viewed on a personal computer. These videos can be watched from the hard drive of your computer, or other media players. To play a WMV file, a set of codecs are required. A codec is a program that can easily read a file, creating video and audio formats from the provided data. WMV files may be played on Microsoft Windows Media Player and other media players as well. The latest version of WMV is WMV10.

How do i download movies using mtorrent

  1. You use special torrent search engines to find .torrent text files around the Net. A .torrent text file functions as a special pointer to locate a specific file and the swarm of people currently sharing that file. These .torrent files vary from 15kb to 150kb file size, and are published by serious Torrent sharers around the world.
  2. You download the desired .torrent file to your drive (this takes about 5 seconds per .torrent file at cable modem speeds).
  3. You open the .torrent file into your torrent software. Usually, this is as simple as a a double-click on the .torrent file icon, and the client software auto-launches. In other cases, this software will even open the torrent file for you.
  4. The torrent client software will now talk to a tracker server for 2 to 10 minutes, while it scours the Internet for people to swarm with. Specifically, the client and tracker server will search for other users who have the same exact .torrent file as you.
  5. As the tracker locates torrent users to swarm with, each user will be automatically labeled as either a "leech/peer" or as a "seed" (users who have only part of the target file, versus users who have the complete target file). As you might guess, the more seeds you connect to, the faster your download will be. Commonly, 10 peers/leeches and 3 seeders is a good swarm for downloading a single song/movie.
  6. The client software then begins the transfer. As the name "sharing" implies, every transfer will happen in both directions, "down" and "up" (leech and share).
    *SPEED EXPECTATION: Cable and DSL modem users can expect an average of 25 megabytes per hour, sometimes slower if the swarm is small with less than 2 seeders. On a good day with a big swarm, however, you can download a 5MB song within 3 minutes, and a 900MB movie within 60 minutes.
  7. Once the transfer is complete, leave your torrent client software running for at least two hours. This is called "seeding" or "good karma", where you share your complete files to other users.
    Suggestion: do your downloads just before you go to sleep at night. This way, you will seed your complete files, you will increase your upload/download ratio, and you will have complete downloaded files by the time you wake up!
  8. Movie and music plug-ins: you will likely need to install media players and updated codec converters to play your downloads:
  9. Enjoy your movies and songs!
  10. Fair warning: you will want a second hard drive once you start serious torrent downloading. Songs and movies require large disk space, and an average P2P user commonly has 20 to 40 GB of media files at any one time. A second 500GB hard drive is common for serious P2P users, and the recent low prices on hard drives make it a good investment.

I cant play my music from my windows media player,, An audio codec is needed to play this file. To determine if this codec is available to download from the Web, click Web Help. how can i solve it.

Windows Media Player although is nice graphically it is resource draining for your computer. You can purchase the codecs from them which rather shocked me that Microsoft would even charge for the codecs for people to use their beloved software that comes with their Windows purchase which in my opinion is rather expensive to begin with. So what most of us do these days is get the free codec files which play movies and other files that Media player will not allow you to do. You can obtain them here for no cost whatsoever. Click Me
Now I usually get the mega packs this covers all of them really I also suggest using the VLC player as an alternative to Windows Media Player it is not as pretty but who cares it plays those hard to play files that are not allowed even when had from a torrent or other methods of retrieval even if the files are protected you can still play them using VLC media player. Now do not start downloading a ton of media players that offer the same stuff you will run into problems with players if you have several of them loaded. Dump the ones except Microsoft Windows Media Player it is a part of Windows software. Just go in and pick this as your default player. I hope this assisted you. John
