I am a newbie at Computer programing. I have been trying to compile the XviD source codes with no luck. i followed this guide http://www.discdude.net/xvid/compile.html, and when I am done I have 5 new binaries in the "bin" folder created by Visual C++. The files are "odivx_enc_dec.exe", "xvid_decraw.exe", "xvid_encraw.exe", "xvid_stat.exe, and "libxvidcore.lib". I don't even know what a .lib file is, I guess its a library file, but right now it is associated with Finale Music Software.
Anyway, I think that I am supposed to end up with a .dll and a .ax file, I think its a problem with crateing the DirectShow part with DirectX 8.1b SDK. I followed the guide exactly.

Some help would be appreciated.
