| I have the Divx Alpha 2 player installed. However, I can't play the divx encoded files in VirtualDub. How do I get VirtualDub to use a certain codec?? Where do I download to install the codecs?? This is the error that I got. --------------------------- VirtualDub Error --------------------------- Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'XVID' (unknown) VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatible codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- |

XVid Codec are different from DivX...  If your video are compressed with XVID codec you can download this codec from Internet (http://www.divx-digest.com/software/xvid.html). To use certain codec in VirtualDub, you can use VIDEO / COMPRESSION menù and appairs the codec you have installed in your PC. Bye. |
