yo,
after opening a file i get the boring message : "couldn't locate decompressor for format Dx50(unknown),virtual dub requires a video for windows compatible codec................suitable" . Recently install codec divx 5.03 , need something more or less?

thanks

Use the 'search' function here ( see on the top ) on the keywords 'decompressor' and 'dx50' ... there were a couple of other threads on this before IIRC ...

Hi ChristianHJW, sorry about the resurrection but this was the only thread that came up with a search of 'dx50' and the search found nothing when looking for 'dx50 decompressor'. I am having the same problem of course. TMPGenc can not open the file either so I suspect it is a codec problem. Could you direct me to the afformentioned threads? thx

You obviusly forgot to search in all forums, and to allow posts being displayed being elder than 30 days. Here is the performed search on 'dx50' :
