    Not Supported File Format

    I downloaded 'Zulu' onto my memory stick so I can watch it on my TV. When I try to play on my TV I get 'Not Supported File Format'. Anyone have a theory/answer?

    What format is it in and what formats does your TV support?
    They (TV's) are also not the best at dealing with file discrepancies, media players are usually a little more forgiving.
    If it's in mp4 or asf and you need mp3 for example there will ways to change it, but probably less trouble to just watch it on your pc.

    Seriously though, it's what it says on the tin. You have to convert it to a format your TV recognises. This is easy. Download a free video converter and do what that says on the tin.

    be careful on CNET and untick the search bar offers as they are hard to remove sometimes

    In my experiance my TV has only played .avi with a xvid codec. Make sure your file is .avi and if not convert it/download a different version.

    Zulu is a cracking movie.

    Look forward to your review once you get your file format shit sorted out.

    I'll watch it on the fcuking computer. I tried 'Any Video Converter' but I'm not computer literate so it didn't work for me. Thanks to all who posted.

    If it's the same film as I saw before, the whites win.

    Obviously your TV is racist and/or a liberal commie. Tell it that Deoxyribonucleic acid is not a file format and it should be good to go.
