Make sure you have the correct codecs installed to watch those Divx movies.

Go to the left and under TOOLS you'll find a program called GSpot. It will tell you all about the file and codecs.

I just had a similar issue with an avi file I downloaded. Ended up being it was using the Xvid codec (which I did not have installed, but do now!)

plz can u tell me which is the best codec and player to use for viewing divx avi movies????

Their is no "best" codec to use. You need the specific codec that the file was made with.

Your best bet is to click on TOOLS at the left, scroll down to the codecs and get the NIMO CODEC. This is actually a bunch of codecs all piled into a single download.

As far as a player, use whatever you want. I use either Windows Media Player or ATI File Player (since I have an ATI vid card).

There are other players available. Again, goto the TOOLS link and have a look.
