Video length question

[el fregadero]

I have this mpeg on my PC, but I recently got a new one and was transfering over all my music/videos and all was going well. After I finished I went to watch some videos and some of them were only playing for like a minute, though they played for like ten-twenty on the computer where I origniall got them. When I played the videos I would make it go about half-way through and it would start up halfway through the movie, but then play for only a few more seconds. What's the deal here? Am I using the wrong player to view them or something?

How did you transfer the data?

[el fregadero]

Over soulseek, how I got alot of it originally.

[egoslam]

Do you still have the original on the old computer?

[el fregadero]

Yeah.

[egoslam]

I would burn it to a CD. It sounds like a small enough file.

[el fregadero]

Just a regular old CD-R? Cuz I don't have a DVD burner.

No need to waste a CD. Just use another program, other then Soulseek, to send things rather then your music. You can set up an FTP and get the same results if you want. Or they have programs that let you control your computer from another and it lets you send files. They will take full advantage of your wireless connection as anything else would.

Okay, so how do I go about doing that?
