Is there a player capable of playing DivX5 with b-frames through VfW?

I would like to show a divx5-encoded video on a GEHA data projector. Using WMP6.4 or Zoomplayer I can watch the video on the notebook screen, but on the projector the video window stays black.

The video is visible when I use the old win95 media player (mplay32.exe) or VirtualDub, so I suspect the projector does not support DirectShow / overlay mode.

However, mplay32.exe cannot play DivX with B-frames and in Vdub there is no fullscreen mode.

Does anyone know of a player I could use?

Just launch two dshow players and close the first.

Or ... Make sure Override VMR is enabled in ZP (and only that on the manual filters page), then right click on the video, on the filter property pages open the Video Renderer, go to the 2nd tab and uncheck the flipping and overlay RGB/YUV settings (leave the rest) and next video to open shouldn't use the overlay anymore.
