Codecs Crashing Everything?!?!?

[kazzalitesucks]

the only codecs you need is divx 4 & 5 and xvid forget the rest
if you got xp, i found nemocodecs terrible and also avoid krystal studio ones 2
every movie i have downloaded works perfect

[Chilly]

Yep thats all i use DIVX and XVID and AC3 and dont have anymore troubles, with any films

[Supernatural]

Nimo Lite is good.

you've probably got several mpeg4 codec of various type installed.
goto your control panel, sound and media, devices, video compression codecs and see what is installed.
you can disable or remove whatever you like.

I would suggest going to your add/remove software and removing everything that was installed as either a codec or media player including winamp. WMP9 will play just about everything provided you have the proper codecs installed.

Get the Nimo codec pack Nimo5 from either Nimo website or Kazaa.
When installing it make sure to remove all check marks that are already checked. (FYI you can expand the various installation options by cliking on the + next to the folders.)
Check only the following.
divx 5.0
xvid
ac3

You may find divx 5 listed in the frame section of the install, check it as well.
