hardy har har, thanks I thought I would have had to choose an application to run it with IE: run it threw Divx, but I guess all I have to do is DL it? and it should be picked up by the player?

Nope....you use the WinMedia player for the Xvid codec to run...at least on mine I have to because my Divx player won't recognize it for some reason.


Here is a site for the codec if anyone has been having problems finding it.

DAMNIT!! I hate winmedia! well I'm DLing.. well more like pirating something that may be a fix, it's the real Divx player with all codec's, and a Xvid installer for Divx so either one after I scan it for viruses may work
