11/30 I need to send an AVI file to a WindowsME user.
DVIX, the codec i usually use, is supposedly not supported.
Anyone know of a codec or movie format that would work?Thanks.
\_ I'd be pretty suprised if MPEG2 didn't work. Or they could just
install the DivX codec.
\_ MPEG2 typically doesn't work unless you've installed a DVD player
program.
\_ You're thinking of MPEG1. Anyway, assuming the op meant DivX,
the WinME user simply could install ffdshow.
\_ Or VLC, or simply install the divx codec.
\_ VLC is completely awesome. http://www.videolan.org
\_ The other option is to get them to drop WinME. Microsoft
should have to pay an apology fee to everyone who had to use
that piece of trash.
\_ Or VLC.
\_ The WINME user was told to view the video using
realplayer, expecting that the correct codec would be
downloaded and installed. Instead it came back with the error
message about it not being supported. Sorry about the typo.
