error message opening avi file in virtual dub

3 Jun 2004, 07:57 AM

when ever it try to open this one .avi file an error message in virtualdub comes up saying "Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'DIV3' (Microsoft High-Speed MPEG-4 V3 [Hack: DivX Low- Motion])

VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatible codec to decompress video.
DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable.

I was wondering wat i needed to do to be able to convert this .avi file into an mpeg so i could burn it on a vcd and make it work on virtualdub

You have to download and install the original DivX v.3.11alpha codec (Click on the link to "DivXDigest" near the top of this page)...
