Sounds moving but image not moving

[lazyb_8]

Hi,
I had downloaded some video clips but when I play the video clips the image is not moving but the sounds of the clip is running. I have installed the DivX Codecs but its still not working, could someone please help me. Thank you.

A) It may be a phony file

B) In order to determine which codec(s) you need for a particular .AVI, you should do the following:

1) Load the file into VirtualDub

2) From the "File" dropdown menu, select "File Information"

3) Post (here) EVERYTHING you see (both video and audio information), or post a screen capture .jpg of the information box

I downloaded the VirtualDub, and I can't open the file, when I open it a message saying:
"Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'DX50' (unknown)"
"VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatiable codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitbale."

Does this mean, this movie clip cannot be play by Windows???

Well I had a problem like this, dealing with old mpeg files. There would be sound but the picture didn't move. However, with the use a VirtualDub I resolved this, so I guess I'm not too much help.

You might want to search more on what a VFW codec is and how to get it.

"'Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'DX50' (unknown)'"

You need to install the DivX v.5.02 codec...
