divx is now sluggish...

[dt34]

unusual, i didn't have this problem before, but my divx movie now runs sluggish and i can't seem to watch it correctly. any ideas? i use mplayer2 (old wmp for the substitling feature). i tried putting the desktop in 16 bit color rather than 32 bit, still doesn't. thanks in advance for any advice.

When did this problem happen? Was it when you downloaded a codec or filter pack? I would leave the desktop on 32bit colors and load up the divx file into GSpot or load it into Virtualdub and see what the File Properties are.

i think the divx movie started to slow down when i installed a codec or filter, but not sure which one....i posted a capture of gspot with the movie information, any suggestions?

could it be the ac3 stream? do you have this problem with other movies?

>> edit: you've a winamp DSP that post-processes audio, is that normal? I know ac3filter is also available for winamp..

hmph

you know, i think it may be the movie, all the other divx movies that i have don't have the same problem, but still, i did watch half of the movie with no problem before. anyhow, i am going to convert the divx movie into svcd instead, what is a good program to use? also, the divx came with an extra .smi file for subtitles, how can i incorporate that into the converting to svcd? thanks in advance.
