Star Wars:a New Hope

[Benno]

I've downloaded Star Wars Episode IV, but I cant watch. So I used GSpot to see what Codec it is using.

Thats what Gspot said:

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks

It looks like an avi. The movie could be corrupted!

If you have done a full install of the K-Lite codec pack you will have 3ivX installed, configure is to playback DivX3 files.

i.e.

Start > K-lite Codec Pack > Config > 3ivX

On the 'Direct Show Priority' tab ensure the slider is set to at least "prefered" and check the box marked:

"ensure compatibility decoders for the following DivX variants" - "DivX 3"

Click apply and ok and retry your film

Thanks I tried that but BSPlayer still tells me unknown file format (DIV3).

WMP cant open it either. Any Ideas whats the cause of this? :huh:

[gatty76]

How about in BSplayer preferences; on the Video tab:

Clicking on the "Use DivX 4 for MP43, DIV3, DIV4" box and trying that??

:(

Thanks for your help gatty76 but it still dont work. Could it be that I need an additional Codec?
Something like DivX3 slow motion? :unsure:

[gatty76]

you might be best uninstalling all ur codecs, doing a restart then reinstalling the codec pack

[Benno]

I tried that but BSPlayer still gives me the error "Unknown File Format ( Div3)"
So do I need an additional codec? Or what am I missing?

[gatty76]

Sorry Benno I'm out of ideas with this..

I've started to download Harry Potter 2 and seem to have created this very error for myself now!

:o :( :angry: :( :o


The files play fine in AVI Preview but no other player on my system will play them (same Div3 error)

I'm only on 56k dialup so it will take a while to see if it's only a "file not complete" error.

AArrrgh!!!!!!

Well looks as though we may be in the same boat !

Well while writing this I realised I did have a DIvX3 Low motion Film it was Zombie Flesh Eaters.
I tried it in gspot and it returned this:

See if you can juggle your codec settings a bit as i only have K-lite codec pack codecs installed on my system

[Benno]

I just looked and I do have other movies that are in divx low motion too. :">
They play without a problem.

I tried to play it with AviPreview and it actually works. :)

So thanks for your help gatty76 I'll have look through my codecs settings maybe I can manage it that it will run wih BSPlayer as well.
