It works positive for me in WMP 9, additionally works high quality in Media Player Classic.posted by riffola at 8:44 AM on July 25, 2004

Masi, I feel your pain-- I used to get a crash from only sure Xvid-encoded avis, but not all of them. I have been using the K-Lite bundled Media Player Classic., and I have not yet had an issue with it.

My Gameshark Media Player additionally has that bother. Does anybody else find that it typically hangs when viewing Xvids? My solution proper now is to re-encode to Divx using Virtual Dub, and I would like a solution that isn't a super-huge PITA.posted by Mayor Curley at 9:15 AM on July 25, 2004

My purchasers laptop computer did that too. Reinstall your video card drivers, reinstall Direct X 9.0b. (Yeah, your card may not need it but certain commands out of your video participant use it)posted by Keyser Soze at 12:38 PM on July 25, 2004

Also download ffdshow-20040718.exe . ffdshow: video decoder that supports Xvid, Divx, and many others. but is far more environment friendly. No loss of quality, and plays again smoother than any customary codec.posted by Keyser Soze at 12:40 PM on July 25, 2004

Yet one more thing: Reinstall kazaa lite codec pack first, and at the underside declick "disable ffdshow filter", then set up the ffdshow filter.posted by Keyser Soze at 1:12 PM on July 25, 2004

ffdshow was additionally my suggestion, though I might have steered one of many older builds first (just like the one on sourcefourge). The newer ones have been eating extra CPU for me.posted by stavrosthewonderchicken at 4:39 PM on July 25, 2004
