    Are you trying to reencode the Xvids to the same or different video format?

          To Sithlord48:

          Try to reencode using the more "Stable" Divx 3.11 alpha codec.

            Nah, he could also use some "even more stable" M$ codec from the 90's...

              I don't get it.
              I mean, I get it.
              Or something like that.

              "downloaded" Xvid gives me all kinds of seriously annoying problems when trying to convert them using the finest programs. The same kind of annoyances posted time and time again in this forum. Never did find a good cure, on my machine, or in the forum.

              Yet, when I rip a DVD myself, using my Xvid codec, the outcome is quite different. XVID WORKS GREAT!

              Using my own encoded (not downloaded) Xvid file, I get beautiful and trouble-free results when using the Xvid for input into tmpgenc or vdub. Output is spectacular. input gives me no trouble.

              To recap:

              If I made the xvid myself from a DVD or whatever, I get great results. If I downloaded the xvid endoded file, I get crashes, errors, and/or crappy output from the Xvid to (insert format here)

              My versions (change from time to time) vdub and tmpgenc deal with MY xvid fine. but when it's someone elses xvid... all those details that are asked for don't seem to matter. What seems to matter is that it's MY XVID, not a borrowed one.

              Any input from the experts on this?

                If you open these downloaded files in say VDub, is the output the same?

                If it's ok in VDub (vfw) then it's just a playback problem. You will need to look into that.

                      Well the problems seem to be just alot of bad spots in the video causing sync problems or conversion just freezes at some point.

                      Not really a quality issue with the outputted file, just problems with the source file that hinder successful conversion.

                      I'm thinking that for some reason, Xvid seems more prone than other codecs, to transmission errors across the internet.
