I can't play DivX in windows XP Pro. I have the proper codec. The movies will play but CPU usage goes to 100% so the movie is all choppy. The movies played fine on windows 2k
Try lowering your filter settings (down to 0, if necessary) for the DivX codec. Otherwise, try playing the movie using other players and see if the same trend occurs.
The only option i can get into is the post-processing but even setting it to zero doesn't do anything to help the performance and i can't access the options for media player, only from The Playa. Any other ideas? My moves used to play fine in wondows 2000. I can't gat them to play properly in XP however which akes no sense because everything else seems to be functionning much much faster.
As StumdoeS stated use the 6.4 (Program Files - Windows Media Player - mplayer2.exe) WMP 8 is not the best player.
Otherwise get BSPlayer www.bsplayer.org as this little player is very resource friendly.
Also pay heed to Enchanters mension of stable drivers, as you can cause all sorts of freeze up's enabling DMA with buggy MoBo chipsets and drivers (VIA is one that springs to mind).
