    I am really not trying to start anything, however, why is it when anyone asks for help on a specific application they are having difficulties with, the first (and second... sometimes third... and so on...) reply usually coming forth, is the suggestion to use something else?

    No offense, yet it seems to me that if they truely wanted to use what is being suggested then they would have at the very start. I think users, in general, could be more helpful if they offered advice/counsil on the application covered in the topic instead of turning the conversation into yet another "this is my favorite program to use for..." thread.

    If you could do it before, then try uninstalling and reinstalling it.

    Your right and I'm guilty aswell sometimes . I only try to give advice on a program if I use or have try'd it. Mabye if one suggests another program ,back up the reason for it.

    Wow this post took a different turn than I thought, I don't mind suggestions for other software but like you say that doesn't solve my problem because I find that I try another app and before I know where I'm at I've loads of apps that I don't know how to use then start wondering if ones fecking up the other but anyway I've tried other xvid files in nero and they appear to be working np's so I've narrowed it down to the dloaded files,btw I actually paid for nero So far I can get it to work by opening the files with windows mm2 and saving it as a avi-dv file then adding the resulting file which is far bigger than the original into nero but does any1 know why this seems to be working or is there some way of checking/repairing the original xvid as the mm2 method is a bit of a pain.

    Maybe the plugins was only for trial use. Try looking for a crack or serial for it.
    Lol I like how you took a turn to point out a problem within this forum's helpers

    I agree, peat. This is about the only place I ever trust to turn to for good help on my PC problems.

    Everybody is knowledable and decent to computer "noobs" (such as moi). No better people to turn to than users who have commited themselves to the principles of file-sharing. Hackers, I.T. pros, college wizards, average joes... all kinds of people here sharing ideas and experiences.
