class factoy ?

[petty]

I am getting a class factoy error when trying to view some avi movies in media player 9 I have divx 5 codec what is a factory error?

[UncasMS]

no idea

but my suggestion is: re-installing codecs and using a decent player (beacuse wmp7/8/9 aint)

use mwp64 or bsplayer or zoomplayer

wmp64 should be available on your system:

run mplayer2.exe from the RUN command

re class factory

Thanks for the reply , I ran g spot and it says 1.4 mb is missing from the file It has all the right codecs ,I think I have my answer I have to find the missing 1.4 mb!

If UncasMS' suggestion doesn't work, 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

[UncasMS]

if your file is truncated, make a copy of it and run DIVFIX on it in order to repair the avi or load it into nandub/virtualdub and save the file to a new name.

nandub/vd should also be able to reconstruct the file.
