Default Movie won't play!

Whats up guys?

I skowered the forum for a topic already posted about this, and i didn't find anything...but please, if i missed it, point me in the right direction..

Anyway, i'm having trouble with a video on my Zune. It's the movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith. So it's a fairly big file (don't think that would have anything to do with it...)

Now, i downloaded the movie fine, and i added it to my library w/ no problems. I'm also able to watch the movie with the Zune software. I then synced the movie to my Zune, and it went through fine, no errors or anything. But, whenever i try to watch the movie on my Zune, it acts like it's gonna play it, then it just brings me right back to the screen where i can select to play the movie again. It's like it's trying to play it, but it can't or something. So basically i select "play" the screen goes black for a sec, then i'm back where i can select play again. A little aggrevating.

The file is def .wmv format, and i've tried syncing several times.

Any suggestionswould be greatly appreciated!! thanks.
