Hi there....i was wondering if someone could help me out in playing a Xvid movie file, which i downloaded from kazaa, to play in a Divx player 2.1. The file does play on the Windows Media Player, but i prefer Divx. I tried the four CC changer, but that doesn't work, the file still doesn't play in the divx player. If anyone can help me out, that'll be great.
Hoping for a reply.
Thankz

The DIVX and XVID codecs are not compatible as there would be no point in having two different formats, so the DIVX player will not recognise it - sorry mate.

If you haven't already , download Koepi's Xvid Codec here: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/codecs_and_filters/xvid.cfm

This DOES play in WindowsMedia Player after install (in Program Files).
