What program did you use to D/L the trailer? There are many differant types of encoding; yenc, mime, uue, and on and on. If your download program does not know how to decode the file all you will see is jibberish. Is this snip from the beginning of the file? Often there will be information in the beginning of the file telling you what the coding format is. I think most programs can read all but the newest (I have seen probs with Netscape and Yenc for instance.) Sometimes I have found you can rename the file to "filename.mpg" and it will still play and/or be read by a conversion program. Hope this helps.
