Has anyone seen this error from vdub and nandub before. I have the nemo codec pack installed and xvid but this is my error.


Couldnt locate decompressor for format 'DX50' (unknown)

VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatable codec to decompress video. Directshow codec, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable.


The reason I ask is that when I run Gspot it says that the codec is installed on my system and there should be no problems with it. I need to know where I can get one that will sort this problem and if there is no codec is there any other method.
