Hey, I just recieved a movie of Bush, Bin Laden etc. singing "We are the World". Does anybody know that? Ok, the Point is that the movie is a .asx file and bsplayer cannot play it. With Winamp 2 i can listen to the song but watch no movie. I don't want to install winamt 3 because i don't like it. Any solutions? Thanks.[/b]

use windows media player I guess...

or:
If I remember correctly, asx files are just links to an asf movie file
(just checked it: asx files are XML based and are called ASF Stream Redirector)
Maybe you could open your asx with notepad, note the address of the real file and download it.
You may then be able to play this file with bsplayer.

I didn't need to. It suddenly works on bsplayer, but without sound. What's now my problem?
