    Are you sure the extension is *.xvid and not *.avi?

    Anyways all you need to do is install the appropriate codec and then play your movie in your player.

    Best solution is to download and install FFDShow. Itll play almost anything.

    Also read this guide by Praetor:

    As far as I know, the DivX Player that comes with the divx codec cant play xvid files unless you change the fourrCC, of course I could be wrong. Use another player to play your xvid files like WMP or zoomplayer.

    Good Luck.

    Technically all players are xvid players if they can playback movies encoded with the xvid codec.

    But this player seems to be created mainly for xvid playback. From your last post, it seems that the player is capable of decoding xvid content without the need of an xvid codec, much like the Official DivX Player.
