I've d/l Saints vs Giants but cant get to play. How do you convert to divx or something i can watch it. I have Saint Falcons and i can watch it but i cant remember how i converted it. Any help would be appreciated.

Click Download.

Click your OS, presumably Windows.

Click a USA download link.

Install that, and you can drag and drop your files onto that icon and the file will play.

I d/l the player and the giants and cowboys game still wont play. It will play the falcons game that i converted to divx file. I take the giants file from where i saved it and drag it on the player and it shows up in playlist but it wont play. Any idea?

You have two seperate files downloaded, right? You should have a cd1 and cd2 or something like that within the folder. Have you tried playing both of them?

I just tried draging the whole file. When i tried to open it, it said file was existed and a window pops up and say 1 and 2 100%, but i cant drag them sepratley.

Does the folder you're dragging out of look something like this?

no i just saved it to my documents. When i open it, it says torrent task existed.

How long did it take you to download the game?

overnight, the file is about the same size as the falcons game (that i converted to divx).

Are you trying to play the *.torrent file with a video player? That's not what you want to do. The torrent process created a folder with the two video files inside of it. You were prompted where you wanted to save, so it will be there where you told it to save.

Look for a folder called SaintsGiants.

Can you right click and show me the properties of the file with a screenshot?

I kinda think he's doing that too, but if he played the Falcons game, he'd know not to play the .torrent file.

I cant get it to copy, but its in my documents and its got a bit torrent sign beside it

You don't want to copy anything. You want to find a folder named SaintsGiants. Use the Search or whatever Windows calls it to find that directory.

At first i had trouble w/ the falcons game (watching it) but someone posted how to convert to a divx, and i did and finally after that got it to play. Im trying to play it on Divx player, Reel player, VLC player, everything i can think of but nothing will play it.
