no picture when converting avi to mpg

[Madhatta]

ok i was folloing the directions in the avi to mpg and i get all the way through and when i press start the video does no display i stop the file to watch and there is also no video. The only problem i can think of is that these movies are probably divx 4 and i am using divxpro 5 on my comp (since you cant use divx 4 and 5 at the same time) will this make a difference at all ??? if i am totally off here can someone tell me what i am doing wrong and why i am getting the sound in the final output but no video

thanx

I had the same problem and was advised to download the Nimo codec pack from the Tools section to the left of this page. This worked for me so give it a go......... :)

let me know if it works

actually all i had to do was mess with the environmental settings and move the one that has a priority of negative 1 to top priority then it worked.

thanx for your help though
