WinXP and movie media problems? - Club CDFreaks

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 16-12-2001

Since having WinXP installed Ive been having prblems playing certain AVI, MPG, and VCD formats.. I have installed DivX and I tried to install the Mpeg4 codec files needed, but WinXP refuses saying a file exists.. The VCD's no longer play, as though Windows does not know what to do with them and ALL the media players I have (BSPLayer, G-DivX, The Player, Windows Media Player) dont work either..

DO I have to force WinXP to take the drivers and install them? Im pretty confused here..

All comments are welcome

Well I have WinXP 2, and just installed the divx drivers from the divx site... works fine! Perhaps if the installation process asks you to overwrite existing files choose yes... they are probably newer then your existing files.

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 26-12-2001

Well I still dont know why VCD's that once worked dont work anymore on my computer.. Global Divx Player, BSPlayer, And The Playa all crash when I try to run the VCD..

Any Ideas?

**MP|3** · 26-12-2001

And they crash on all VCD's?
Wrong codec or something like that?

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 28-12-2001

I dont know what I need to install to get them to work..

You could try installing a the Nimo Codec Pack that might help

Youre not the only one with that problem...
I'm running WinXP Pro and I also have problems with playing mediafiles like .mpg and .avi.
I tried playing the files on WMP, Playa, PowerDivX Nextgen and Zoom Player.
Nimo Codec Pack does not seem to help...

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 31-12-2001

I also tried the Nimo Codec Pack and that fails to work also..

Dont really know what the problem is but Im also using WinXP Pro..

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 07-01-2002

Has anyone have ripping problems under WINXp also?

I have the latest EasyDivx 078 and I get the error message:

ERROR: Couldn't find the selection 'Divx Codec 4.12' in ComboBox 0

And thats as far as the program goes to try to ripp the DVD..

Similar message for RipItAll ..

*ckin2001* · 07-01-2002

The problem is probably because you are using the divx 3.0 codec. Upgrade to the 4.12 codec at www.divx-digest.com.

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 07-01-2002

Divx 4.12 is installed..

Redd Ears · 08-01-2002

You could try this:

delete mpg4c32.dll and mpg4ds32.ax(if it exists) in your C:\windows\system\ directory and then reinstall the divx4codec.

*Hypnosis4U2NV* · 11-01-2002

I posted this on the EasyDivx Forum and no one has answered..

I keep getting a Divx Auto 40B error.. Cant open Divx codec 4.12 in Combo Box 0..

Then it cant open Combobox..

Whats that about?

xmansean · 11-01-2002

Why is DivX so important and how can I rip a protected DVD's .vob into My HD and then translate as an VCD?
I mean I need a software that can rip the "PROTECTED"DVD.Help please!!!!
