You may have mixed me up with the OP? But here goes...
andy at ubuntu:~$ file HDViD.Eng.XviD
HDViD.Eng.XviD: ERROR: cannot open `HDViD.Eng.XviD' (No such file or
directory)
If I run 'file' on the actual file I have, it gives this:
andy at ubuntu:/media/ANDYS-DRIVE/videos$ file Fargo\ \ tt0116282\ \[Eng\]\
1996\ \[NoPassWord\]\ DVD\ .DivX
Fargo tt0116282 [Eng] 1996 [NoPassWord] DVD .DivX: RIFF (little-endian)
data, AVI, 720 x 540, 29.97 fps, video: XviD, audio: MPEG-1 Layer 3
(stereo, 44100 Hz)
