Hi.
I've got an .avi file that I would like to view. It does not play in
WMP 11 (on Win XP Pro) so I checked what codec was required using the
GSpot utility. It said that it was an Xvid MPEG-4 codec. So I
downloaded and installed the codec for Xvid that is posted by Koepi
(Xvid v1.1.2 for Windows). The installation went fine. But I still
receive audio with no video in WMP 11 (as well as using Media Player
Classic). Another thing to note is that if I view in Windows Explorer
my file list, it does show the first frame of the video in the file
browser. Audio seems normal.
I ran GSpot again, and it says that I have XviD MPEG-4 Codec and XviD
MPEG-4 Video Decoder installed. When I tried the "Render" in the
DirectShow Render block of GSpot, it says that rendering was
successful using the video decoder mentioned above.
Any thoughts on a) what am I doing wrong, and b) what can I do to fix
it?
I have a few different .avi that are in the same format and none of
them play so I don't think it is a case of a single file being
corrupted or anything like that.
Thanks for your input!
