I'm facing to a weird problem. Let me explain from the beginning. I
started to create my own codec pack, which contains DivX, XviD, AC3
Audio Decoder, Morgam Stream Switcher, VobSub and Ogg. When a install
those codecs from the original pack, everything works fine. But, from
my codec pack, those codecs are recognized by Windows (movies powered
by xvid, divx, ac3 and son, work right), including under Video Codecs
window at Control Panel. GSpot also detect them. But, VirtualDub
aren't showing those codecs into compression window. When i try to
open any file with VirtualDub, i get the error: "Couldn't locate
decompressor for format XVID (unknow)".
How do i make the codec? I'll show using xvid for example.
- My setup program uses regsvr32 to register xvid.ax located into
system32 directory. xvid.dll is inside that directory too.
- The following key is added to registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\drivers.desc"; ValueType: string; ValueName:
"xvid.dll"; ValueData: "XviD MPEG-4";
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32"; ValueType: string; ValueName:
"vidc.XVID"; ValueData: "xvid.dll";
I think i'm forgetting something, and i hope your help.
By the way, the codec home page is http://corepack.cjb.net
Thanks in advance!

Like I said, codec packs are a bad idea. From the sound of things, yours is particularly bad. Uninstall it and only install individualy what you need. See if you still have the same problem.

Check the Xvid forum over at Doom9. I think there was something on there about codecs dissapearing.
