I use windows media classic and 6.4 (from windows.com). I try to play avi files and they get all blocky and choppy with blocks forming on peoples' faces at random times and so forth. It's hard to explain but I hope you guys understand what I'm trying to say. I used AVIcodec and Gspot to check for codecs, and I downloaded and installed the necessary codecs, but still I get the choppy video and now my windows media 6.4 won't even play avi files.
Can someone tell me what I can do to fix the choppiness and the avi files that won't work with win media 6.4?
I used K-lite mega codec pack and installed ONLY the codecs I needed by what AVIcodec told me.
I have tried using Divx player 5.1.1 for the avi files and it also gives me blocky/choppy video.

Try :
Bsplayer @ http://www.bsplayer.org
Videolan @ http://www.videolan.org
If they don't work you have a problem I don't get this on the Pc but I do on my home dvix player with certain movies this is due to the newer programs about which are being used to encode them.
AviCheck (@ http://miketeo.net/projects/avicheck/ ) tells me a better overall than gspot etc.
The reason is "packed bitstream" meaning in AviCheck :
VIDEO: XVID = From Van Heslsing (dvd rip)
B-VOP:No = If yes I get what your getting on your Pc.
S(GMC)-VOP:No = If yes I get a orange shadow to the right in the picture.
QuarterPixel:Yes = If yes if won't play at all and I have to re-encode completly to which this got and now works like a dream.
Anyways try the 2 players first before I get too carried away with this topic.
You could also try Gordian Knot -- Downloads @ http://gknot.doom9.org/ this I used to only put on the leastest XviD codec.
