Watching XVid movie ??

A

Andy100

Please can anyone help. The reason why i'm putting this in the XP ng is that
it seems to be only a problem in XP, it works on my other HD which has
win98.

How can i watch an XVid movie ??. I have installed every XVid codec i can
find and i still cannot play it in any of my software (Jetaudio, Winamp,
BSPlayer, DivX Player, BlazeDVD3, WinDVD6), i just get errors like 'The file
number 1 has invalid format'. Is there a unique XVid player out there or
something ?

Cheers
Andy

You can try k-lite, it contains almost all the codecs.

Actually, you need to contact DivX movie pulisher to know what kind of
codec needed to watch the movie.
