hi, im new here. just got myself a new pc(before this using mac).

im having problem to playback avi files. most of the time i will be using windows media player(latest ver), and it will show messagge like -error downloading codec-
and if i use realplayer, it will also show similar message.

so i would like to know how & where can i find the codec? thanks!

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.

Storm codec http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Vi...orm-Codec.shtml

i am using it now , so far no problem at all.
Can play any kind of videos even Quicktime and RM.

how about a mac, is there codecs for A mac to playback divx formats and all other formats like the compiled version above ?

to keyz & imisu29

thanks for the very useful info, everything works fine now!

have u try using mplayer? hope it can help

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

Did anyone know wat's wrong? Please help me to solve this problem.

Thank you~

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!

if the original software couldn't play the file, maybe it might be had corrupted data, i suggest redownload the file again

Thank you very much emino and jayhan! It's file corrupted.

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.
