The offcial divx player and codec are full of spyware! if you destroy this, the codec don't work! So are there some other programs, in which i could watch my .avi's?
Come to think of it you may also need a MPEG2/SVCD codec. I found this one SourceForge, although I haven't tried it yet myself. libmpeg2
Everything released through SourceForge is freeware and open source, no ad-Aware, no spyware or any kind of malware. SourceForge is a goldmine if you ask me.
I'm using Ad-Aware and I'm very happy with it. But I also know a lot of people use both. So the easy answer is probably: If your computer acts strangely and one of them can't fix it, use both.
You mean Windows Media Player doesn't work with the latest divx codec ? That it won't play .avi's using the latest divx codec ?
Did you use the latest ffdshow-20040405 ?
It works just fine for me.
You can just use quick time for avi's..... It works fine for me...
And Divx shouldn't come with spyware... are you downloading it from a third party site? Download it from the official website and you should be good!http://jpg.uploader.net/uploaded/DD19B555_robert2.jpg
or www.download.com

It clearly says that the Free DivX Pro is Ad-Supported But The DivX Player seems to be free from spyware.
Obs ! I just had a fast look, I haven't downloaded and checked it out.
