Green screen during Xvid playback

[proto2]

I saw that someone had the same problem on this forum but when I installed Tsunami filter pack, nothing has changed. I've tried to install many codecs with no effect. It works perfectly on my girlfriend's computer so I've got the same codecs and graphic card drivers (previously i've uninstalled all codecs in "Control panel/multimedia" and re-installed Media Player with it's codecs). I supose that when i had uninstalled codecs from "control panel", the files stayed in system. Please help me

1) If you look in the "Xvid" subforum here, you'll find a multitude of similar questions - answered with, "Install the FFD filter/codec"

2) Why post a question regarding "Xvid" in the "DivX" subforum?

I tried it, bu there's another problem. Video doesn't want to go at all Media Player doesn't show any problem, but screen is black, seconds doesn't count

Easy fix for Xvid Green Screen w/Blocks or Playing Well w/ no audio

Many people seem to be having this same problem as I once did:

Green screen in Windows Media Player with scattered weird blocks.

Often if you fix this problem you get no audio. Here is an easy way to have both high quality Xvid video and audio (wow! what a concept)

If you have Nimo codec pack installed, uninstall it completely, as well as any other divx/xvid codecs listed in Add/Remove programs. I am not saying Nimo is crap, but it screwed up my computer. I am sure there are very good codecs included in the pack, but it seems unstable.

Download and install the 3ivx codec from http://www.3ivx.com/download/index.html . I have found that their website is down sometimes, so if you get an error, just try them again a little while later.

Now you should have video.

If you still don't have audio go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/ac3filter/ , click on Download and download the exe version of the latest build (should be the top one). When you install this AC3 audio decoder, your audio should work.

Some files, however use Ogg Vorbis encoding for the audio, in that case install the Ogg decoder from http://www.divx-ac3.com/ .

At least all of this fixed it on my WinXP machine.

Also, if this message helps you fix the problem, please cut and paste this fix to every message board you know of where people are having this problem. Maybe we can put an end to it once and for all.
