    Got the following error when opening a avi file

    "Couldn't locate decompressor for formatDX 50'(unknown )

    VirtualDub requires a Video for WindowsVFW )compatible codec to decompress video .DirectShow codecs , such as
    those used by Windows Media Player , are not suitabl."

    Do I really need to install divx 5? I'm using ffdshow!

    Looks like it. Anyhoo, you are gonna need DivX 5. I only installed three codecs on my PC: DivX Pro5.21, XVid w/ ffdshow, and Huffy. They can handle everything I've got.

    Good Luck!
