    have a DivX movie that plays fine on my computer but not so much on my standalone. It plays but the video is crap. Audio seems to be working fine. The standalone plays DivX files and I've played divX movies on it before. Here's the g_spot info.

    I know it's an Xvid codec but I've played played movies wid that codec before.

    oh yah, I forgot to mention that when I loaded the initial 2 divx files in virtualdub, it gave me the "vbr audio stream detected" error. so I used this method to fix it which is wat caused the high audio bitrate


    The following procedure has ALWAYS worked perfectly for me:

    Converting .AVIs with VBR-MP3 Audio

    Simply use VirtualDub to save the audio stream as an Uncompressed PCM (WAV) file as follows:
    Load your original .AVI into VirtualDub
    From the "File" dropdown menu, select "Save WAV" (Enter a new filename with a ".WAV" extender).Click on "OK"
    Then set "Video" to "Direct Stream Copying"
    Then save the .AVI as a silent .AVI (set "Audio" to "No audio" after you've saved the WAV file).

    Then close VirtualDub and restart it
    Set "Audio" to "No audio"
    Load your silent .AVI
    Set "Video" to "Direct Stream Copying"
    Under "Audio" click on "WAV Audio" and load your .WAV
    Set "Audio" to "Full Processing Mode"
    From the "Audio" dropdown menu, select "Compression" and choose the appropriate .MP3 settings. Click on "OK"
    From the "File" dropdown menu, select "Save as AVI" and save your file with a new filename.
