[doubler]

hi all
i have downloaded the correct codec and filters (ffdshow) (decoder - libavcodec) during playback, the videois blinking with grey solid color, why?

i've tried on different players, but its all the same result, its an .avi file
any idea whats going wrong?

thanks guys

which version of ffdshow did you get? make sure it is the "celtic druid" version, from http://www.free-codecs.com

does this happen on all divx/xvid videos? got latest graphics card drivers? got directx 9.0c?

oh yes!! thanks

the version ffdshow i used is a 2004 version, i just dl-ed the "celtic druid" version and it works like a charm!!

thanks guy
