    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.

    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.

    VLC features list
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html

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