Thanks for that suggestion. I downloaded a clip and installed coreAVC codec. WMP made an attempt to play the clip but it was not synced and the picture was unrecognisable. I guess I do need a faster PC to mess with HD. ATM I'm thinking I'll wait to see what hardware becomes available at Freesat launch. It may be simpler and cheaper than getting a fast and quiet PC that we would tolerate next to the TV, otoh, I'm told it is possible to use long HDMI leads........
