Hi Vivianmack, and welcome to TSG.

I am a bit confused. Your post sounds like you have a video (film) file saved on your computer and that the file has .PLS files inside of it.

The .PLS filename extension usually indicates that the file is a playlist. A playlist is a relatively small file that is just a directory of other files on the computer and it tells a media player what to play next. A playlist file would not be found inside of a video file.

i have saved all the files to a folder and when i select the folder it then plays the the video on my computer fine but it is made up of 62 seperate .pls files.

sorry i should explain more. it will only play with a VLC player and not the normal windows player which does not recognise the format.

I have never used VLC player and am not at all familiar with it. I did find this web page that lists supported file types and .PLS does not seem to be among them.

What is the size range (in MBytes) of the 62 PLS files?

each file is 14 M. i signed up to a site in germany called usenext and this is where i got it.
