I'm new here, and I surly hope that I'm on right place.
Noone could help me so far. I tried to reach myself the solution of the problem, but ... :( Maybe this question is repeat 1,000,000 of times, but I havent found anything that can help me ...
Ok. Here is the problem:
I can't watch DivX films (*.avi, *.vob) normaly on my comp.
The sound goes before picture, and the picture is little slower than normal, and chopped somethimes ...
I used ALL the coceds awailable for download :
DivX 3.11 Alpha, DivX 4 Beta, DivX 4.12, DivX 5 Bundle,
Patches of many kind ... Some called DivXG400 and others ...
Same with players ... Micro DVD 1.1, 1,2 ; BS Player, The Playa,
Global DivX player, and NOTHING !!!
The best result is using DivX 3.11 Alpha with picture in 100%, not full screan. Full screan ?! NOOO! Everithing is going on on full screan! Only Tomb Rider goes perfect ! :)) I don't know why ...
Also, I noticed when thi size of 100%-ual image of film is bigger than the image of Tomb Rider, there is that problem. I think less image will be better. When I played movie with BSPlayer, I found that (for example 'What women wants' goes with 22, or 20, or someth. 19 FPS, and the format of movie is something like 700x... 25 FPS ...
Maybe it can't reach that speed or something.
I think that my computer isn't that slow.
It's:
AMD K6 3D 450 MHz (i tryed also with 500 jumpered)
64 MB RAM (also added +64MB = 128MB and no change)
Movie is on hard drive Maxtor 20GB Ultra Ata 66
And the graphic card is MATROX MILLENIUM G200 8 MB SGRAM,
and I think the video card is the problem maybe!
I read some texts on web that some MATROX and etc. cards can't
play DivX good, but nobody cared about that even they knew - nor
MATROX nor MICROSOFT... or someone which is in that.
So, there is some patch called DivXG400 for MATROX Millenium G400 (not for G200), I tryed it and nothing ...
I realy don't know IS that a problem ?!
Or what is it ?

P L E A S E H E L P !!!

Sincerly yours,

I have a neighbour, and she has a G100 in her computer.

Forget it, no go.

The card only can do 8 bit overlay (!!! are matrox nuts?)

Fetch yourself a cheap tnt2m64 or something like that, and your initial problems are gone.

Well, then you get into trouble because of your processor. But most movies should play fine.
