DIVX problems with VirtualDub

[jsl272003]

i am trying to burn a divx file and when i do and i try to play it in my stand alone player, it tells me "no audio". i have tried to load it in virtualdub and it tells me:


Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'DIV3' (Microsoft High speed MPEG-4 V3 [Hack: DivX Low-Motion])
VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatible codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable.

i downloaded the pandfwdv codec and i dont get that message anymore, but it tells me:

VideoSourceAvi Error: the source image format is not acceptable.

all i want to do is be able to burn this file to vcd so that i can watch it on my standalone player. any ideas or suggestions. i have read alot of the foums and guides and still cannot get it. all help is apprectiated. thank you.

Test it with Gpsot and get the codec.

under video this is what it says with gspot:

Codec :4CC Div3
Name : Divx 3 Low-motion
Stat: codec not installed.

so where do i go to get the codec i need for this?

btw, i have no problem playing it with Power DVD or WMP. sound is good and in sync. only when i burn to cd do i get "no audio".

At the link I gave you there's some info about the divx 3 codec and a link to D/L it too. Try it.

got it figured out. had to d/l the divx 3 codec. now it works really good. just have to figure out why the audio gets out of sync during the movie and gets worse, but i saw a thread on that and will go check it out. thanks for all your help. i appreciate it.
