    Hello,
    This is my first time here. Can anybody help me:

    i have installed divx_311alpha.exe
    I use BS player version 0.84

    After opening the,,,.avi file I get the message Unknown file format

    Who knows this problem

    Thanks

      Try this:

      Uninstall the alpha 3.11

      Get a codec-pack (kristal codec pack, or nimo-codec pack) and install this

      Does it work ????????? .....................Problem solved
      NOT ?

      Get the divx 4.12 codec and install it (answer NO when it asks if divx4.12 also has to play your 3.11 moviez)

      Doess it work???????????..................Problem solved
      NOT ?

      Get the SMR-patch and install
      Does it work??????????..................Problem solved
      NOT ?

      Then i'm out of ideas (actually i have one more but i save that for if this all doesn'rt work )

        Thanks,

        installing 4.12 and logging as administrator does the trick.
