DivX - how?
Hi Everyone!
A lot of content is in the DivX format. How do I get it to run on my antique WMP 6.4?? I don't want to install newer version of WMP, just add drivers or the like to the existing WMP. Thanks! TwoRails |

Hi Two Rails,
You might also consider downloding the Windows Media 9 player codecs (if you haven't already done).. I'm also still using WMP 6.4 but have try to keep it souped up with the latest codecs. HTH |

The DivX player from DivX.com will provide MUCH better quality playback than media player. The first version was great though a little bit unstable, but I have had NO problems with the most recent one.
The FREE one, of course.  I couldn't recommend it more. |

Hi Two Rails,
I believe all you need to do is download the codecs and install them. Here's a link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...cdownload.aspx HTH |

Sorry for the delay in getting back...
 Finally got to watch the HL2 trailer!! Thanks for the help Everyone!! I did the MS update first, which allowed me do actually download the movie (it wouldn't before) but the video wouldn't play. So then I installed the DivX drivers (no player) and then WMP 6.4 hummed along just fine!! Thanks again!  TwoRails |
