Your Windows Media Player may not be playing the video you downloaded because the movie is the wrong file type. Windows Media Player has a tendency to not play certain file types, so check that it is a .wmv (Windows Media Video) file, and that may solve your problem.

If it isn't a .wmv file you most likely won't be able to get the video up without downloading the appropriate codec. A much simpler way to go about this instead of getting each codec on its own, is to download an application called VLC player, it is completely free and will play pretty much any video format you can find.
