I downloaded a DivX movie (paid for) and can play it without problem in the standard DivX Networks Player version 2.5.4 on the PC.

I'd like to convert the movie to a DVD-R (or DVD+R) so I can play it in my DVD player which does not support DivX.

If I try to open or play the movie in anything except DivX Player 2.54, I just see a mess of color, although the audio sounds fine.

If I run AVIcodec it shows the following details:

File : 734 MB (724 MB), duration: 1:51:56, type: AVI, 1 audio stream(s), quality: 46 %

Video : 647 MB, 808 Kbps, 29.970 fps, 512*384 (4:3), DX50 = DivXNetworks Divx v5, Supported

Audio : 76 MB, 96 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 0x55 = MPEG Layer-3, Supported

I've tried opening the file in TMPGEnc, VirtualDub etc but they all show a mess of color. I have the latest DivX official codec and have installed ffdshow.

Can anyone help or advise me?

John.

Oops! I just read the terms and conditions and I think I may have violated them with my question. I wasn't trying to do anything illegal, I just want to play a DivX movie in my dvd player. I know nothing about DivX protection and wasn't trying to get around it. If my question is not allowed, could the moderator delete it and accept my apologies.

Get FFSHOW from here -- free DirectShow filter for watching DivX movies, faster than original DivX codec!

Read AfterDawn.com's DivX guides from here.
