Hello,

I recently downloaded a movie from the net and can't get it to play in any of the media players on my computer. With the title of the movie there's another word called 'xvid'. I was wondering, is xvid another media player? I already have RealOne, Quicktime, WindowsMediaPlayer and DivX installed, and non of them play the movie properly (no audio in DivX).

lol, never mind. I found it on Kazaa. Never thought that I would need to install so many extra bits and pieces just to get a single movie working.

I've now installed xvid which plays the movie fine but still I get no audio. DivX throws up the clue "audio data: Tag 8192" missing. It suggests that some sort of new audio codec is needed, but I haven't a clue where to look for that.

You should just be able to use Media Player once you have that installed.

xvid is another codec, an open source one. The website is www.xvid.org but I think they only have the source code. There should be links to an installable version on there though.
