So I downloaded Season 15 of the Simpsons with the hope of getting caught up as I usually am busy Sunday nights, but every episode has an [rl] in the filename and despite having the nimo codesc, I can't play these particular AVIs. Anyone have any idea what the hell codec I need?

I gave up trying.
Now if the file won't play I use VLC media player.
VLC will play anything.

I agree. VLC plays (almost) everything, even if the file's broken!

Though I can read those simpsons files without problems...

Yeah, I grabbed VLC and also finished re-downloading the [rl] ones and was able to view them in wimp and vlc. VLC's got some neat features, though, thanks for the heads up.
