    Can you tell us what type of file it is, what encoded it, where was made,..... a bit more detail would help.

    I avoided this as I loaded VLC as soon as I got my One.

    You can read about it here http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

    There are threads here detailing how you load it (the correct version).
