    When i try to load an avi file ( divx encoded) which plays ok in my Phillips 642 stand alone player, i get an error message " couldn't locate decompressor for format DX50 ( unknown)".
    The sound is out of synch for this file and I would like to use virtual dub to change that but i cannot load the file. Can someone help me please,

    Thanks

    Install DivX, XviD, ffdshow or something else that can handle the FourCC DX50 via VfW.

    Perhaps i haven't explained things properly. I get that message when I try to load the file into virtualdub. I have installed ffdshow.

    Enable VFW Divx decompression in ffdshow.
