I have the same problem,trying to open a video clip i receive the error 2048 answer.
what is it and how can I open a clip otherwise?

this error thing is really ******* me off!!!! i just spent $30 dollars for nothing...every time i try to import a video i just get an error-2048...its bull!!!!when i entered the registration code in changed nothing!!!everything looks the same...so what the ****!!!! i wish somebody would give me $30 dollars for free!!!!
you mentioned these files were downloaded from limewire, it is possible that they are simply currupt, limewire files (especially when they are not completely finished downloading) may not open. When they are 100% complete they may play no problem even if you are getting -2048 when they are downloading.
