Divxdec.ax : I need that file , and not because of obvious or newbie reasons .
Hello !
Could any one send me the DivX 4.12 (or is it 4.02 ?) divxdec.ax file ? I am rather sure that it is called that , but I may be mistaken . It is like this : I have a video , in 2 parts , that was encoded with a version of DivX4 . The first part plays (I have DivX 5 installed) fine , but the second only shows a green screen (and sound) . A friedn of mine , whom I got the video from , said he had the same problem , and could only solve it by trying to reinstall variuos codecs . I do not want to reinstall anything , because I have reached a delicate equlibrium of codec playback that I would like to keep . I reaching that equilibrium , I found out , among other things , that the DivX 4 and 5 decoder files are both called divxdec.ax , and are interchangeable , as far as the system intelligence goes (as it uses both , if they are just there) . What I want to try is just to cut out the divxdec.ax (DivX5) out of my system folder, and insert the DivX 4 version , and see if I can see the video . After seeing, I then just repaste the DivX 5 version . So if someone could tell me where to get the DivX 4 divxdec.ax file , or if someone could send it to me at JazzMC@gmx.de , I would be very grateful . Cheers , Jan . |

On the Elecard page, I dint find anything .
And they don't have official DivX stuff anyway . And I do not know that ffdshow filter . As I said : I would just like to have the divxdec.ax file that belongs to the DivX4 codec . I have th DivX4 installer, but that kicks out DivX5 again . I just want to replace the file and see if the video (Nausicaa , an anime by the guy that did Princess Mononoke) works . So please : if someone has it, I need it . Or if you know something else I can try . The video is in 2 parts , and the first part works fine (it IS DivX 4 encoded) . The second part just shows a green screena and audio , but the file itself is recongnized as a valid DivX4 encoded file by all programs I tried on it . DivXFix , though, couldnt remove the header , so i guess the problem is with the header . probably some disfunction while cutting the file . Vdub cannot do anything with the file but display green screen and sound . I know that it can reconstruct the header when it is missing, but that seems to be there . Sincerely , Jan . |

Very funny .
If not knowing ffdshow is sooo newbie of me , then shame on me , but you really could do more than just writing that one word . Like explaining , in one or 2 sentences, what it is and does, and if it might help me with my problem . That shouldnt take you more than 2 meager minutes . Jan . |

It is a dshow player that can play DivX 3.11, 4.0, 4.01, 4.02, 5.0, 5.01, 5.02, XviD, MSMPEG4v2, WMV1, H.263, etc.
It's been around for a while, I honestly thought everyone knew about it by now.. http://cutka.szm.sk/ffdshow/ -h |
