I tried that , but nothing . They have same dll (divx.dll).I tried renaming it and change some values in register and win.ini but nothing. Is there anyone who knows how to do that ?
FFS OK. I found out that it's possible to have both version of divx at same time and thay work , but it needs little register editing. Last edited by ffroms; 6th March 2002 at 00:01. |

OK , I'll trie to explain .
For Windows ME (maybe all Win9x , I din't trie that yet) First install Divx4.12 , goto to windows\system folder and rename divx.dll in divx4.dll. Open system.ini in windows folder and find under drivers32 vidc.DIVX=DivX.dll and change it to vidc.DVX4=DivX4.dll Now open regedit Editing register Under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32] creat new value vidc.dvx4=DivX4.dll Under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaResources\icm\] creat new keywith name vidc.DVX4 , and under that key enter new strings "Description"="DivX Codec 4.12" "Driver"="DivX4.dll" "FriendlyName"="DivX Codec 4.12" Now you can start VirtualDub and under Compression you'll see Divx 4.12 and when you click on it will show "Divx4.dll" . Now you can install Divx5. For Windows XP Install Divx4.12 ,rename divx.dll under windows\system32 in to divx4.dll [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32] "vidc.DVX4"="DivX4.dll" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\MediaResources\icm\] creat new Key vidc.DVX4 and under that key new strings Description=Divx 4.12 Driver=DivX4.dll [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\MediaResources\icm] creat new Key vidc.DVX4 and under that key new strings Description=Divx 4.12 Driver=DivX4.dll [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet\Control\MediaResources\icm] creat new Key vidc.DVX4 and under that key new strings Description=Divx 4.12 Driver=DivX4.dll And that's it. It worked for me.And one warrning . Divx4 and Divx5 place they settings in same place in register so if you change like bitrate in divx4 it will have same effect on divx5. FFS I just found out that settings for WinME works on Win98SE. Last edited by ffroms; 6th March 2002 at 16:49. |

Thank you VERY MUCH for this tweak, it works great!
Without this I would not have installed Divx5 again, because I need a reliable Divx4.12 to capture from WinTV (divx5 crashes every time when I try to capture in realtime). |

Neither DivX3 nor 4 are open source, so no-one will have a -legal- source code lying around.
Nic used the OpenDivX code to produce the XviD DSF, so you should be able to find that one somewhere. Check ProjectMayo or ask Nic directly. |
