how do i do this . Windows player wont play them ?
You need to combine them.
This is what happens on my machine;
If I download a file called, for example, greatfacial.wmv.001, it's automatically renamed greatfacial.wmv.mpeg - which is obviously wrong. Just make sure you rename it when you get the download requester and that'll make it a lot easier to keep track of the different segments.
When you've got them all downloaded (.001, 002, 003 etc.) you need to combine them with either HJSplit or another program I use called 7Zip. Load up the first numbered file and 'extract' it, you should get a single file called greatfacial.wmv (or whatever it was called). :cool:
The system would work a lot better if the forum didn't rename the segments to .mpeg as I mentioned above, no such wonder so many people seem to have problems downloading split files... :confused:
How many people have had this problem? I've seen it mentioned a few times but whenever I download a file that's been split with HJsplit it retains the 001, 002 etc... attachment.Quote:

I imagine this is even more of a sod for people who have the file suffixes hidden; which is still the default in Windows, isn't it?
Im not very tech smart. I can't play HJ vids and dont understand the fix.To bad for me I guess.
You need to use hj-split or 7zip to combine them, there's a few other threads in the tech section that explain it.Quote:
