The new Centropy release of The Incredibles is an AVG update file and it will only play the first 56 seconds of the film. I downloaded version 0.7.2 and this DOES work.

AVG update file??????

Sorry, we don't have access to all the illegal content in the world.

Hey buddy, it's not my problem. Just wanted you to know. Btw, you have never heard of an AVG update file? Wow

avg update file ?????. hmmm I wonder could that be the AVG update file for the AVG antivirus program by grisoft.com thats the only AVG I ever heard of...

Oh yeah, anti virus What was I thinking.

I just know .bin and .cue

And what the remark was intended to show was that we can't fix things that we do not have access to. Upload a sample somewhere (like our streams server) as denounced in our http://www.videolan.org/support/bug-reporting.html bugreporting page, or fix it yourself. Or at least provide any form of debug output. We can't work magic.

It's not that i personally don't know where to find this movie, it's more that
1: it's illegal for us to download those movies
2: not everyone uses eMule and other P2P applications
3: I and other developers don't have much time and that if everyone just cooperated a bit on this level, we would have a lot more time for bugfixing on our hands.

AVG is an anti-virus program but it uses the .bin extension for its update files. Thus, on a PC with AVG installed .bin files will appear as “AVG update” files. If the file really is an AVG file, VLC will not play it (which should be obvious).

Something about people who just don't have a clue
