    I've recently downloaded a movie which I want to burn to VCD.

    I have on my PC GSpot which has informed me that I require the Xvid codec which I have found and downloaded.

    My problem is I dont know what to do with it?

    I have searched for an executable or setup program in the folder but cannot see one. Where am I going wrong.

    For a complete listing of almost every codec required to watch a movie and the order to install them in... pay a visit to http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/48608

    Once you have codecs installed....
