ahh! it seems that is the problem, when playing the "video codec=N/A"
sound is dolby digital and the copy was done on a professional editing
suite by a friend that is no longer able to use the facility.
The file is a .VOB and was a copy from a VHS which in turn was a copy of
35mm film Im afraid im not able to send a copy of the video as its too
big and as yet i cant copy a small part of it because the usual video
editors wont read it despite it playing perfectly in MoviePlayer.

any clues as to how to find out what codec it is?

Many thanks for the reply anyway.
