you should have listened, kolyan, i suggested VLC in my first reply!
if the divx icon shows up, it means the divx codec is decoding.
yeah but after i installed ffdshow, divx icon does not come up anymore. i get ffdshow icon now. so basically does this mean that i can uninstall Divx.com codec? or i need both ffdshow (which to my understanding already has divx codec) and divx.com codec?
uninstall the divx codec, unless you do divx encoding (convert to divx)
alright thanks. sorry to bother u with probably stupid questions but i have last one. so ffdshow has both divx and xvid decoding and this means that i no longer need niether divx.com codec nor xvid.org codec and they both can be removed. will ffdshow provider better image quality over those two codecs?
don't worry, there have been no stupid questions in this thread yet
ffdshow is one of the best DV programs IMO, it can decode almost all types of video and audio. you no longer need divx or xvid installed. if ffdshow is correctly set up, it will provide better quality than both the xvid and divx decoders, and with much less CPU usage.
my list of what is needed regarding codecs/filters on any PC:
now i cannot play HD movies (avi, mp4) in WMP and I can only play .MP4 in VLP (i used to be able to play both in WMP). now i get this error: "The source filter for this file could not be loaded." whats wrong here?
ok. after going over the settings and making sure that what u stated above is done, i got .mp4 to play in WMPC. however, i get the same error in WMP and Transporter HD in .avi format opens up and just shows the first frame (does not play). btw. everything including that fashion show that didn't even open in virtualdubmod plays in VLP
