My Gameshark Media Player additionally has that trouble. Does anybody else find that it generally hangs when viewing Xvids? My solution right now's to re-encode to Divx utilizing Virtual Dub, and I'd like a solution that is not a super-large PITA.posted by Mayor Curley at 9:15 AM on July 25, 2004

My shoppers laptop did that too. Reinstall your video card drivers, reinstall Direct X 9.0b. (Yeah, your card may not want it however sure commands out of your video player use it)posted by Keyser Soze at 12:38 PM on July 25, 2004

Also download ffdshow-20040718.exe . ffdshow: video decoder that supports Xvid, Divx, and so on. however is way more environment friendly. No lack of quality, and plays again smoother than any commonplace codec.posted by Keyser Soze at 12:Forty PM on July 25, 2004

Yet one more thing: Reinstall kazaa lite codec pack first, and at the bottom declick "disable ffdshow filter", then set up the ffdshow filter.posted by Keyser Soze at 1:12 PM on July 25, 2004

ffdshow was additionally my suggestion, though I might need suggested one of the older builds first (just like the one on sourcefourge). The newer ones have been eating extra CPU for me.posted by stavrosthewonderchicken at 4:39 PM on July 25, 2004
