How to view your Anime.

Silly me. I tell you guys how to get your anime, but I haven't yet told you how to actually view it. So, this is going to help you out (hopefully). Links for suggested programs will be posted at the end of this post.

Alright, lets start off with the files. If you've been torrenting your anime off Tokyo Toshokan (or anywhere else), you'll realise that the files are usually either .avi or .mkv files. The majority of them are .mkv files, and you can't play these with your normal Windows Media Player. You can play .avi files on WMP, but there are better ways to watch them.

Since .mkv files are unable to be played on WMP, you'll have to look for other programs. If you don't feel like downloading a lot (in comparison) try VLC. It's not recommended, but if you're lazy go ahead. It doesn't always play smoothly, but I suppose it's alright.

If you want to be pro and watch your anime in awesome smooth HQ, you'll need to download a few codecs. These codecs being CCCP and CoreAVC. Download them from the links below. Install them both, and they'll come with the programs Media Player Classic and Zoomplayer. Either one works.

Alright, here are the links:

CoreAVC:http://www.coreavc.com/
VLC:http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Happy watching.
