Looks like Praetor's either gone on holiday, or more likely, gotten fed up of us posting our codec problems to this forum. Anyone else up for taking Praetor's place?
miller56 - thank God - I thought it was just me! What does GSpot say about your installed codecs? If you don't know how to find out, open GSpot, go to View > Installed Codecs > Video. Here's what mine said. If anyone can spot any codec that shouldn't be there, or knows how I can sort out the ones which say "codec not registered" (all the VFW codes) PLEASE let me know!!

This has gotten even worse now. My TV tuner stopped working and dxdiag crashes when it tests "directshow".
I'm completely fed up and I have decided to format. I'll let you know what happens.
g-spot crashes when I open it too. Something is VERY messed up on my comp.

After the format everything worked. I am going to venture a guess and say that my DirectX isntallation was corrupted somehow.

ok I used Praetor's configuration and it still wont run files with AC3 audio. The video runs smoothly, but no sound even though avicodec and GSpot say it's supported on my comp. When I used nimo build 9 default the sound works, but the video is very very blocky and choppy and slow. I tried that divx pack thing and it just caused everything to run with video slower than the audio, and the file I was trying to run didn't run at all, just froze on the first frame. I tried it with just divx 5.21 + xvid + AC3 and nothing. Everything runs but that one file still wont. Can anyone suggest a different codec configuration?

does anyone know how to add a different audio track to a downloaded movie? Case in question: I've downloaded Van Helsing and all the audio is in spanish. Is there an english audio track that I can download so that I can hear it in english, or do I need to download the whole thing again and hope it comes out in english?

first of all, ur talking about piracy, which is not a good idea on a public forum like this one. if some official is browsing and happens upon your post, the possibility of getting banned from this site would be the least of your worries.
second, to partially answer your question (i won't answer the bit that relates to piracy), you can use VirtualDub or some similar app to strip the audio from a video file and re-encode it with a different audio track. of course you need to have the audio as a separate file, which you don't have.
my advice, if you want to see Van Helsing in English, go buy the DVD.

Does it count as piracy if I do, in fact have the dvd??? I don't have a burner or a dvd drive on my computer, and as an alternate way of backing my disc up, I wanted to just download it. If that counts as piracy, I didn't know. The thing is that where I live children have a nasty habit of trying to play my discs and thus scratch the disc up, rendering it useless. I did not think it was illegal if you own the disc. I understand your assumption that I would be stealing movies, but do not appreciate it. Many ppl I know own this movie, and I can easily see it. I just don't like my movies being ruined every time I leave the house. If there is a legal alternate route of backing up my discs, (and don't say preventative maintanence), I would appreciate if someone caught me up to speed on it.

Apologies for the accusation. New advice: get a DVD burner! :-) They're not that expensive and backing up your movies takes minutes, compared to days, I would expect, judging by current p2p download speeds.
What you can and can't download off p2p networks depends entirely on the other users. If someone connected has stripped the English audio track off Van Helsing and shared it then yes, you can download the audio, unlikely though that may be.
Even if you get a DVD reader drive you can strip the movie to file yourself using an app like DVD Shrink.

I have had many problems with codecs as well- not able to play some files. I removed them all with codec SNIPER and now installing the codecs mentioned here.
All my videos are playing fine now.However I do have a
encoding problem, I am trying to convert a xvid with VBR audio to CBR since my Philips dvd player only likes CBR @128k. TMPEG works fine but I would like to use VirtualDub and recode the audio only( to save time) but have no luck.
VD wont open file because of VBR. I tried VDmp3 and
encoded audio full process but end result is video choppy with no audio.
Any ideas?
Thanx

Praetor,
thanks a lot for putting up the codec guide. however, it was made in september of 2003. should i still follow each step to the letter? what about newer versions of files or new formats that have popped up? also, the divx link is broken.
thanks for your help.

OK, here is my problem.
My Codecs worked great before I had to reinstall my system.
After installation I had Xvid, and DIVX 5.* installed, and my vids would start and about stop 15 times or more through the movie and I would have to go a few seconds beyond where it stopped to continue the movie where it left off.
I uninstalled both codecs and installed one at a time. No difference.
I uninstalled all codecs and installed FFDShow codecs. No difference.
Installed GSpot, It said everything was fine in the the movie. All codecs installed, and no sign of error.
I tried PowerDVD, and DIVX Player, Then I tried ZoomPlayer. Still doing the samething.
I am at a lost about now.
Any suggestions.

I think something is wrong with xvid codec or something? Whenever I play certain movies, even though GSpot says they should work out fine and can render them, I get an illegal operation whenever I try to watch it. I ripped the DVD myself with Gordian Knot, and it works fine on my bro's computer.. though I've had similar problems a couple times with other videos I haven't ripped myself.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the xvid codec, but it didn't help. Any ideas what might be the problem?

Two simple codec packs out there to tackle your needs are...
Gordian Knot codec Pack at sourceforge
and Kazaalite codec Pack...

I actually came across this problem when I downloaded some 300+Mb of an *mpg file, but when I used AVIcodec to check what codec it uses, it was actually blank, and AVIcodec recognised this file as an audio file. I cant attach the screenshot but it looked something like this.
Filename V.codec name A.1 codec name
F:\beach.wmv (blank) Mpeg-1 audio Layer 1
Some ideas on what should be done?

Hi everybody,
I'm not 100% sure I have a codec problem but I strongly suspect it. Here's the story:
A long long time ago, back when my laptop PC worked like a charm, I had no problem playing AVI files, or any format for that matter. Then after installing one of the following (can't say which did screw my system):
Winamp 3.0 (the one that also plays video files)
Windows media player 9 series
nothing was ever the same again.
The only file format I can now play correctly is mpeg (or mpg). All the others, especially AVI take ages just to open and then while playing, the image freezes after 2 seconds and stays frozen for minutes, the sound goes on without the image or is filled with cuts, and the bigger the file the worst it gets. I suspect I have too many codecs installed, but which ones do I have to delete? And will it really solve the problem?
I'll be VERY thankfull for any tip about this and thanks for spending the time.
RPL

I don't know what to do anymore.
I'm running window xp, no servicepacks. I've got a pretty old videoadapter: a SiS 6326 agp.
Before, I had windows 98 SE running with the latest FFDShow codecs. I could play every videofile.
Now, with windows XP and again FFDShow installed, mediaplayer, bsplayer, and quicktimeplayer crash almost instantly when I run whatever kind of videofile.
The strange thing is: when I load mpeg files in VirtualDub, everything works just fine.
Do I have a codec problem, and if so, what can I do about it?
Thanks in advance for your knowledge,
kind regards.
