I was reading earlier about someone with a tmpgenc problem. It was that tmpgenc was encoding a black screen or some of the video then a black screen. The solution was to install the correct codecs used to create the .avi. I am having this problem but installing the codecs does not make any difference! When i load the avi into g-spot it tells me that i have ALL the codecs installed properly but the problem persists!! Anyone any ideas? thnx

Oh and is there any way to convert an avi encoded with a codec (eg divx or xvid etc...) to a standard .avi file??? if this question is complete rubbish then i apologise ( I dont know much about video codecs vcd's etc...) thanks again
