I installed NIMO5Build8 and try to play some MPGs I downloaded. Although they start playing and sound and look good... some ways into it, they all either freeze, the video freezes and then jumps around... or the player errors out. Any ideas what could be causing this? I also have uManiac's XVid installed.
Codec Bundles aren't really a good idea due to conflicts with other codecs that you may, or already have, installed. THis problem happened to me with the V Player. I solved it by downloading a good DivX codec, a good Xvid codec and then deleting all other codecs from my system before installing them.
well the codec pack is probably the cause of all this crap, stick only to codecs you need man. Download gspot from the software section and in future check video files to see what codecs are requored! then a google search is usually enough! also if you get a file with corrupted frames, get avifixed and divfix, make a backup copy of the movie and then test it with both programs!
