Hey,
I have a DVD which is able to play DivX and XviD files (tested many times). Recently, I have encountered several XviD files which my DVD was unable to play.
At first I thought it was because the bitrate it too high, as it was 1887 kbps, so I recompressed it using VirtualDubMod into a XviD 860 and 1000 kbps to no avail.
My DVD is able to play XviD with much higher bitrate (1100 e.g.) I tested it myself.

Does anyone have any suggestion where to look for an answer? things to try?

Thanks.

Most players only support avi/.DivX as a container. What container is your file?
Some other specs might help, but if re-encoding didn't fix it then my guess is that the resoltion is too high.

Thanks dude, I saw your post on videohelp and thanked you there as well :)
you are right in your guess, it's 960x528.
How do I change the resolution?

Well you have to re-encode. Easiest way is probably to use something like AutoGK. Could also do it manually. Just resize to 720x400 or lower.
