I suggest you to get the codec pack like K-lite Codec Pack.Check on first post .Standard pack should enough for normal use.But, you can opt for full so next time you don't have any problem to play the video file.

Pls help. I have trouble playing a few .rmvb files. I've tried to play with RealPlayer 10.5 but it keeps on asking me to dowload new patch which does not exist after I checked on it.

Besides that, I've also tried to play the same video with Real Alternative v1.4.8. It came out with this error message.

E:\Download\21.rmvb::Output

Just use VideoLAN Video Player. It has embeded so many codecs into the programs and you wont have to install the codecs one by one. It also plays quicktime movie, use less RAM and it loads up faster. It practically plays EVERYTHING, with some exceptions such as midi and realplayer files.

And it is FREE and the source-code are available if you're interested in tweaking it.

Never worries about codecs again!

my Media Player Classic complains that it doesnt have the codec to output the 3ivx audio.

I downloaded the codec but it is a shareware and it has already expired. Is there a way to play the file without using the shareware?

I have ffdshow installed but it doesnt help.

How about using another codec pack such as K-Lite Codec Pack ? Try uninstall ffdshow & install the other codec pack (which have 3ivx).I'm happy with K-Lite.Hmmm...I have few AVI with 3ivx but I didn't notice any expired warning.Weird ...

Another post I found said audio problem with 3ivx & says expired.It turn out AC3filter is not installed.
