I am having trouble playing a divx movie in media player 11 in the 64 bit
vista media player I am able to get the sound to play but no video. But it
does play dvds just fine.

I think i need a codec or something to play divx but can not find any the
work with in 64bit media player I am using 5381 build thanks

Until a 64-bit DivX codec is available, run 32-bit WMP from "C:\Program
Files (x86)\Windows Media Player"

Thanks
but when i run that program it comes up but i can not click on file or
anything it is like it is frozen as soon as it comes up the 64bit comes up
and plays mp3s but the 32bit one I can not get to do anything at all
 
so you have the same problem the 32bit media player will not work


thanks in advance
for all your help
 
I can repro - must be a bug.
