Problem with DivX on my computer

jassKat
By jassKat

Hi All,

I just installed the new version of DivX on my computer and it really messed everything up. In fact I had to do a complete system restore and take all my files off my computer and put everything back on. It was a mess.

Once everything was fixed, I put DivX back on ( I wasn't sure if it was the cause of the problem) and right away my computer completely slowed down.

I am running Windows XP with a 1 1/2 year old HP laptop. Has anyone had this problem with DivX? I also have a Dell Laptop new and noticed it has had some problems after DivX was installed.

I know everyone will just say get a MAC- and I am getting a new desktop MAC, but I like to use my laptop too!

Any advice?

If you want to avoid any hassle with all the codec, just download K-Lite Mega Codec Pack Version 3.30. All codecs you need (audio and video) are there in one whole pack. You can get also get Classic Media Player (and it's better than VLC player).

If you have subtitle file (*.sub, *.srt) it will automatically play with the movie.

Here's the link http://codecguide.com/download_mega.htm

If you want to look for movie subtitles go to this site http://www.divxsubtitles.net/

You just need to register and you can download movie subtitle in different language.

Enjoy!!!

Big Fish = Big Fish = Hamour or King Fish .... go to wikipedia guys and read :) and I got the big fish from the fish market sometimes, never knew that catching those is a pain in the a**.

Of course everyone likes big fish, who likes the small one. When it is big, it tastes better and is more juicy and there is always enough for everyone :) :)

be one crazy dude to do something like that with your machine. It is been a while for me since the last time I used DivX, but the problem is some of the other software comes with DivX integrated within it. Some of them need DivX to play some videos. Some of them even Roxio writing software will create problems if it was there. Sometimes even without it because the writing mechanism in Windows XP [Built-in writing to CDs advantage which you can access it through send to then copy these files to CD] is using Roxio.

The video issues and codecs problems are endless, try to install VOBSub to see the subtitles for a movie and you will find that no videos on other players are playing, video games does not work and a lot more. If you need to watch movies over the net, why don't you use DivX for web? Or DivX Web Application Player? Hopefully it would solve your problems and would not be depending somehow on DivX.

Good Luck

I use the VLC player. I only need to DivX to watch tv shows online- which I like to do sometimes. The problem is, I have to use DivX!

Don't think I have the ffdshow.

The thing that is wierd with DivX is once I installed the new version, my computer went @$#%#. It wouldn't turn on and it took a lot just to get it to safe mode where I could get my files off and then completely re install everything. Have you heard of DivX causing this?

tra la la

By King Edshel• 10 Aug 2007 10:20
King Edshel

Do you have anything else rather than DivX installed on your machine? Such as 'ffdshow' or any other player? Sometimes the incompatibility issues appear and the problems start to get to the surface when more than one software installed which is serving the same purpose would be there.

Forget about DivX and install VLC player. It is a lot better and I know that the interface does not look good, but give it a try. A lot better than DivX and I use it to play all of my movies.

Please, find down the download link:

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

and after that choose any of the available server to download.

In case you were unable to play some movies, just download those two small codecs and all would be fine.

1-AC3 Filter [Sound].

2-xVid Codec [Video]

Have a nice day.

Best Regards
