[arielmi]

hello people.

i cant play avi files.
i have 4 players in my computer:
winamp 5.08, wmp 10, Viplayer 2.91, Divx player 2.6

the only player that can play the movies is "Divx player"
and i cant play movies with subtitles with this player
i downloaded alot of codecs, and nothing helped!
i also dowloded the program Gspot to check if i have missing codecs and it didnt find anything missing.
so if u can please help me to solve my problem.

i have tried ffdshow, nimo codec pack, xvid, and more
and nothing helped.

"i have 4 players in my computer:

EXACTLY what happens when you try to play an .AVI in EACH of these players?

DivX Player is my choice for playing DivX encoded .avi movies. For anything else for example xvid WMP should play them with the right codecs.

I suggest uninstalling ALL codecs and players you have and installing a clean copy of the latest DivX codec (which includes latest player) Find a respectable codeq pack and install just ONE and see if you can play the movies.

I would re-install win amp or Viplayer, buts thats just me...

EDIT: I think this is should be in the playback section
