Windows Media Player has encountered a problem while playing the file

Lately I've been getting this message come up for almost every video I download on here. The file seems to have downloaded in the way that it xx.x/xx.x MB, x mins left goes all the way to the end. When I view the video with VLC only a part of the video is there. I use chrome as my browser if that helps any. Is there something I can do at my end to fix this problem?

dash03,

I use FireFox and this sometimes happens for me when the download does not complete. It appears to be finished, but when you look at the size of the downloaded file in windows explorer it is smaller than the stated file size should be. Probably happens due to a file download error or timeout. The slower the internet connection, the more often it happens. If the download is the correct size, I don't have an answer for you.
