Playing Problem

[Monolitus]

Hya!
I'm trying to playback a Divx file but WMP crashes trying to do so.

I used GSpot to know the codec and error:
Video : Divx 3 Fast Motion
Audio :MP3 ..

The codecs are installed (according to Gspot), but the DirectShow Render displays an error (this is the part which simulates WMP)

Status: 0x80040218 : VFW_E_CANNOT_RENDER - no combination of filters could be found to render the stream....

I am playing the file in Virtual Dub without any problems....

Help !

Cheers.

From there install the divx 3.11 alpha codec

after 2 hours of searching the web for a valid link to divx 3.11 aplha codec, i gave up.

can someone give me a VALID link to the codec ....

p.s. i don't understand why the 5.0.2 bundle does not include 3.11 codec ?????

Cheers.....

The doom9.org downloads section has a functional download of the codec.

Re: Monolitus

Given that the DivX 5.02 codec automatically takes over playback of 3.11 contents (and hence installing the codec will likely see no improvement since it won't be used to decode the file), I suggest you get the Tsunami-patched DivX 3.11 codec instead (it prevents the DivX 5.02 codec from doing as stated above). The latest Tsunami codec pack will have it (I trust you don't have any difficulty with looking for a codec pack, do you?)

UncasMS's webpage will have the pack.
