Title: No video with DivX files
Post by: mikeosbornma on October 29, 2003, 07:14:58 pm

I've installed the latest Divx Pro Codec (and player just to make sure things were working) but can't seem to get MC 9.1 to give me any video in the "Media Center Display".  Am I missing something simple here? Thanks, Mike.

Are you in Playing Now?  Playback options can be set to jump there or not.

I don't get video in the Playing Now window either.

What is the file extension?  It's possible MC thinks it's audio.  This can be set (somewhere ... sorry I don't remember).

Same here. It was working fine in previous versions.

It can be set in the file tags.  I believe that if you go to the tags in the action window, there is an option to change the media type.  You could check and see what it's set to.

Tag infor says its an AVI. I thought there might be a bug with this so I changed the extention to divx and it didn't make any difference. I'll keep playing......
