I have downloaded an item that indicates that it is a DivX item and in mulitple languages. It shows this on the opening screen. I can play it on my computer with no problem.
I burned it to a disc and my Sony DVD player won't play it. It usually always plays DivX.
I put it through my regular *.avi converter (ImToo AVI converter) and the resulting file comes out 200 megs smaller than it started and in FRENCH.
I don't understand Harpo in French......any suggestions.

PS:Media Info says it is really a XviD and the following

Format : AVI
Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave
Format/Family : RIFF
File size : 697 MiB
PlayTime : 1h 18mn
Bit rate : 1230 Kbps
Writing application : Nandub v1.0rc2
Writing library : Nandub build 1852/release

Thanks for your help

When I set this avic program to the original downloaded file it says:

FourCC description Code: XviD
FourCC Used codec : XviD

with apparent options to change it to either

MP41
MP42
Mp43
DIV3

How do I change it to a DivX ?

Thanks again

Type DivX in both boxes and apply.
The player should really accept either, you notice that XviD is DivX backwards ;)
If you have a hex viewer you see the entry near the beginning of the file.I think the dvd player looks for this information and all the changer does is convince it that it should play it.
I don't know about the language part.
Did Harpo speak?

When I typed DivX in both boxes, it plays with both English and French coming out together.
Sorry, I don't know what a hex viewer is.

Is this a hopeless case??

Would the English be coming out of one speaker and the French out of the other?
