Nero

Hi there,
When i try to burn a downloaded video from 'Torrent'on Nero it always comes up with 'Unsupported File format'
How do i fix this?
Thanks james

 

What format is the video.
Is it an avi.
Are you getting the error when converting to DVD format with Nero Vision.

 

It is an .avi file. The error comes up when I drag and drop the file into nero to burn.

 

either dropping it in the wrong place and/or software of nero

or you dont have xvid or divx codec installed

 

Im definately dropping it in the right place. But i dont know if i have that installed?
tanx

 

How do u install it?

 

See which codec the file uses, by dragging it onto 'GSpot' - and look to see if it's installed on your PC.

This example, you see the video uses the DivX codec and the Status line says that it's installed.

This link is for the XviD codec, which is functionally equivalent to DivX.
