I have found that about 25 percent of the films I download will play just fine in MPC or VLC but my Blu Ray player rejects them saying they are "Corrupt or Illegal Format".
I have gotten around that by just downloading a few copies of the film and usually if the Blu Ray player finds one is corrupt, some other one will still play fine.
It's a real mystery because I can't seem to find any common ground for the ones it says are corrupt. Some are .AVI files. Some are .MP4 files and all kinds of other extensions are susceptable to the same problem.
One workaround I have found is to run the problem files through DVD Flick (which is a very horrible way to go) and it produces some ".MPG" files which are usually 3 times the size of the original file but they play fine on my player.
Would anyone here know what this problem might be or know of a better solution to transform these problem files into files that my player will play?
