Two Movies, Same Formats, Only One Plays

[droopy]

I hope this is the right place to post this question, it does relate to the playback of a DivX movie...

I have two AVI movies, both of which play directly on my PC, but when streamed to another device only one of them does, the other has audio but no video. I used afreeCodecVT with the intent or trying to determine what the differences were to try and encode the one that doesn't work in a more suitable format. But according to the information both are DivX video with AC3 audio. All of the other information seems to be the same as well, and it indicated that both were complete. I intend to try Gspot and Nandub as recommended elsewhere but since I have no issues playing on the PC I don't expect it will give me any insight.

Being new to digital video I'm at a loss of what to check next to try and fix this issue, so even searching the forums which have such a wealth of information isn't really helping. I've been browsing around, but so far nothing has really seemed to apply. Is this something that I should be trying DivFix on? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

you can likely get away with re-compressing or converting the one problem file using virtualdub. dx50 for example should be no problem for most players.

Here's the screen capture from VitualDub, the first is the one that doesn't work, the second does.

It actually seems to have more information than afreeCodecVT provided in that there are actually discrepancies between the two videos that may provide some useful feedback, I guess I just need some assistance in interpreting it, and knowing how to fix it. Any input is useful, thanks alot.
