    Hi All
    I expect you can guess I am entirely new to this even though my grown up kids think I am too hold to be messing around. However can anyone help. I downloaded a film which file ends DVX.avi. When I try to view it in Winamp, I only get audio and no visual. What do I need to do to actually view the film? Do I need to convert it into a different formalt?
    Any help would be great

    simple, one im assuming it was a non commercial film eg a home movie that your downloaded.. thats fine because if it was a proper film thats been at cinemas etc then its piracy and rule number 5 says no piracy

    if it a home video (off sorts) tho then you can view it in RealPlayer, or nero show-time

    no need to convert if u wanna watch on computer

    grammar, tense and the ability of people to read your posts. You cannot watch DiVX movies in any application unless you have the correct codec installed.
