I've installed Divx 5.02 Pro onto my system and for some reason my apps continue to show 4.12 as the Codec being used. I've looked in Control Panel/Add&Remove programs and don't see where I can remove it like 5.02. Anyone know where all it is installed so that I can get it off of my computer and start using 5.02?

I believe divx 4.12 contains an uninstaller.

That's a little odd, Divx5 should quite happily override divx4 completly. Do you have administrative priviliges when preforming the divx5 install ? (only relevant on Win2k/XP).

Batman. The only uninstaller that shows up is for 5.02.

khp, I did try installing 4.12 on another computer then installed 5.02 and it looks to have worked fine. When I checked my divx dlls everything looks normal on the second system, but on the original system I have a couple dlls that are labeled (divx4.12.dll & divx4.dll).?

Thanks for the support both of you!!

If you continue to have problems you could try using a different package to get divx5 installed. Like the tsunami filter pack. You can get it from Uncas's page
