alternative codecs? - Club CDFreaks

Is Divx the conly codec that MovieJack can use? Is it possible to use alternative codecs?

Thanks

No.

Yes, any other codec that you have installed in Windows.

Why is it then that MovieJack said when I first ran it that the Divx codec had to be installed first? Do I need to uninstall the Divx codec in order to choose an alternate codec in MovieJack?

Interesting question. Have you tried installing one to see what happens?

When I run MJ to make an AVI file, when I click "rip" MJ presents a box that lets me choose which video codec I want to use, and configure that codec. Then I have to chose the audio codec.

When I added a new audio codec, (after MJ install), it just appeared as an option on the list.

I did have some probs when I upgraded my DivX codec from 5.03 to 5.05 (MJ didn't seem to know I'd upgraded?), but I can't remember any details ....

I realized that you only get the ability to choose the codec if you are creating an AVI versus a handheld movie.
I'm surprised that when the list of codecs are shown that you can't pick codecs like Media 9.

Thanks
