    I just downloaded Virtual Dub, but I can't get it to open an .avi file. An error window comes up telling me:

    "Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'DIV3' (Microsoft High-Speed MPEG-4 V3 [Hack: DivX Low Motion])

    VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatiblie codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable."

    I downloaded VFW codecs that someone said were neccessary for Virtual Dub, but I still keep getting the error when attemping to load an avi.

    Help, anyone?
