What else can I try?

The sender wont be around till monday, cant even ask him.
If this is an mpeg..divx codecs isn't going to do you much good.
Real Player won't play mpegs.

If you have a video editor..simply lay it out in that and take a look at the file. If it's corrupted..it'll show that. If you don't have a video editor handy, here's a link to a slug of freeware editors
you can choose from:

A lot of these will allow you to convert from one format to another btw. Hope this helps.
