Hi,
I'm a noob at xvid so don't expect me to know everything, and NO .. english is not my first language :-)
So let's get to the point.
I DL some XviD encodes and installed the XviD codec 03/10/02 from Nic's webpage ... everything was fine, smooth playing ...
Next morning after a normal reboot i wanted to watch the movie again.
AND??? it looked horrible, like no post-processing was done. I checked it, but it was all activated.
i uninstalled the codec and installed an other build, no change.
then i uninstalled again, rebooted, instaled nic's build and it was fine again. then reboot and... ugly.
I change the 4CC from XVID to DIVX, and it was playing nicely.
however if i have a xvid encode i want to watch it with xvid and not divx.
I tried to use ffdshow in the latetest version, played with the settings following guides in the forum. didn't help at all, same problem as pure xvid decoding.
if you want to know how the video looked, turn down all the post-processing and watch one, noise and verticale line in the video. when watching at fullscreen it there is no smoothing of the edges, very blocky.
My PC:
Win2000 SP3
WMP 6.4
Duron 1000
256MB DDR
GeForce2Ti @1024*768*32
XVID Nic's 03/10/02
DirectX 8.1
I searched on the forum but couldn't find anything that said:
if you change this and that it works...
any idea?
