I have quite a few long video files and for some reason my
system (win 2000) has stopped allowing me to view them
beyond about the 1 minute point. The audio will continue
but the video will stop (the progress bar says the file is
done but it's obviously not) also it only displays these
files as being 1 minute long in the playlist. I can open
the files in a program like adobe premiere and view the
full file but there seems to be no way to do it from WMP.
If anyone has ever seen this before please help.

I did a Google search on the phrase "1 minute long" and got TONS of hits...

Did you change codecs recently?
How about going here to make sure you're covered:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/format/codecdownload.aspx

Here's a link to a representative sample of what I found, from another
message board, where a person was having your problem....
http://forum.digital-digest.com/sho...cb970353&threadid=23144&highlight=minute+long
scroll to the bottom of the page for what she did...

She went here: http://www.elecard.com/download/#mpeg2decoder (Basically, it
looks like she avoided it, and went with something else.)
I don't know anything about this other encoder... but you might consider
looking in to it.

Best of luck
