How can I stop XVids from robotically shutting down video gamers after i https://xvids.life/ open them. July 25, 2004 8:03 AM Subscribe

Some XVids mechanically shut down the video player once i open them (no matter what it's - Bsplayer, Win Media Player), but not all of them. I tried uninstalling all codecs and solely reinstalling Xvid, but it surely did not work. What ought to I do?

For example, this movie does that [1.5 MB, avi] posted by Masi to Computers & Internet (7 answers whole)

It really works advantageous for me in WMP 9, also works high quality in Media Player Classic.posted by riffola at 8:44 AM on July 25, 2004

Masi, I feel your ache-- I used to get a crash from solely certain Xvid-encoded avis, however not all of them. I've been using the K-Lite bundled Media Player Classic., and I haven't but had an issue with it.

My Gameshark Media Player also has that bother. Does anyone else discover that it typically hangs when viewing Xvids? My resolution right now could be to re-encode to Divx using Virtual Dub, and I might like a solution that is not a brilliant-huge PITA.posted by Mayor Curley at 9:15 AM on July 25, 2004

My clients laptop did that too. Reinstall your video card drivers, reinstall Direct X 9.0b. (Yeah, your card may not need it but certain commands from your video participant use it)posted by Keyser Soze at 12:38 PM on July 25, 2004

Also download ffdshow-20040718.exe . ffdshow: video decoder that helps Xvid, Divx, etc. however is way more efficient. No lack of quality, and performs back smoother than any standard codec.posted by Keyser Soze at 12:40 PM on July 25, 2004

Another factor: Reinstall kazaa lite codec pack first, and at the bottom declick "disable ffdshow filter", then install the ffdshow filter.posted by Keyser Soze at 1:12 PM on July 25, 2004

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