I've problem with the fourCC of my xvid movies.
When i encoded the file, i selected the XviD fourcc for encoding but, when i play the movie (within zoom player) the film is being decoded by the divx decoder.
I'de like it to be decoded by the xvid decoder because it has some slow down when watching.
I used the latest divx and xvid codecs.
Please help to fi this or tell me how not to see this slow down under my movie when decoded whith divx decoder!
Thank you very much.

hi there, disable 'support generic mpeg-4' (under quality tab) in the divx decoder configuration utility.

sure your xvid decoder is installed properly then? and dont forget to give ffdshow a try (its *ALOT* less cpu intensive, but wont work with more then 1 bframe)

You're wrong. It works with more than 1 bframe but packet bitstream option should be disabled when encoding.
