Hi Guys

I am total newbie so bare with me, i am looking to buy a dvd player that will play all xvid files. I know few player only play few xvid files but there are firmwire updates that allow them to play more files.

Could anyone recommend a good player? i have came across Nissan DV100 or Umax Mi220X. Are they any good?

Also is there any Combo dvd & VHS players that play xvid files? As that would be the best sloution.

:thanks:

Don't get mad at me too for I won't bare with you...:p

All(99.999999%) players which list DIVX will also play XVID. You just have to follow certain rules when creating the xvid files. Something about packed-stream, b-frames and some other mumbo jumbo terms that I am still trying to comprehend.

Try your search at videohelp.com which has an extensive listing of players. Make sure to tick VHS when choosing.
