    Divx and Avi

    Hi Everyone, I'm new to both the internet and broadband and have no idea about divx codes. I tried to download some Avi video files onto my computer but when I played them I only got sound, when playing on Windows Media Player. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

    In order to determine which codec(s) you need for a particular .AVI, you should do the following:

    1) Load the file into VirtualDub

    2) From the "File" dropdown menu, select "File Information"

    3) Post (here) EVERYTHING you see (both video and audio information), or post a screen capture .jpg of the information box

      Sometimes VirtualDub can't show codec information You can use gspot, which will show You codecs on your system and what codec you need. Download here: http://www.divx-digest.tv/software/codec/gspot20.zip

      After this, You need to download and install the right codec.
