best codec combo

[jlim0930]

I have a question about all the diff codecs thats available
until now i have been using nimo + xvid to play my movies but from reading this forum that nimo is not really recomended...

I am wondering whats the best combo of codecs to install to play a wide verity of divx movies... ie xvid/div3/divx5.05 etc

Please let me know..

Thanks
jlim

tsunami is better than nimo imho.

still the latest divx in tsunamis pack is version 5.02 but it will be updated soon i should think ;)

on the other hand people say: never change a running system :D

what about xvid playback with tsuami ?

do you still need to use the four cc to change the setting before playing those ?

Nope that's the good thing about Tsuanmi it will play ALMOST anything

Just make sure that you tick FFDShow in the Custom installation. Configure FFDShow to play XVID (DIVX and others too, if you wish). You can't go wrong this way.

Thanks for all the info ppl....
i have removed the nimo and installed tsanmi and its working great! i can play the xvid movies and others without any problems and getting the sound and everything also

one problem that i noticed was that on some movies the screen was jerking...

is this normal ? or am i doing something wrong ?
