Heya.
A friend of mine lent me a film on a pen drive/USB stick, and upon putting it into my computer and playing it, I only got audo, no visual? Both times on his computer there has been both visual and audio, and we have tried with two different pen drives, the second of which had far more room. Any help?

Trying to watch a film on a USB stick.

Copy it to your harddrive first, the USB stick probably does not provide a steady/fast enough read speed for the movie to be read off.

There could be an issue with a missing codec. Have you tried using VLC?
Intel i5-3570K @ 4.7GHz | MSI Z77 Mpower | Noctua NH-D14 | Corsair Vengeance LP White 1.35V 8GB 1600MHz
Gigabyte GTX 670 OC Windforce 3X @ 1372/7604MHz | Corsair Force GT 120GB | Silverstone Fortress FT02 | Corsair VX450

Ya sounds like a codec issue, get VLC or CCCP.

I imagine, if anything, a USB flash drive would be faster than any external HDD.USB stick probably does not provide a steady/fast enough read speed for the movie to be read off.

Codec issue more than likely. Unless the USB stick can't deliver the required read rate and the player decided to drop the Video stream component.
