Instead of freezing you will probably see a blurry screen for a couple seconds after the bad frame is played. This is much better than the alternative! I have tried many codec packages but ffdshow is still the best one so far... You can download it at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow
You can try more aidio/video software at http://www.divx-digest.com/software/index.html
P.S. ffdshow is only a decoder, not an encoder! You can only use it to play DivX / XVid movies! If you want to edit and save DivX / XVid movies (VirtualDub) you will need the actual DivX / XVid encoder. You should not have problems installing and using DivX, XVid, and ffdshow at the same time. |
Thank you very much.
ffdshow is indeed preventing freezing of divx movies.
I have tested this out with a movie
containing some freezes and bad frames.
You only notice some "glitches" but it keeps running. :D
I need to have installed all codecs anyway.
If I try to use just ffdshow, most of my software does not find any codecs.
So I have now installed:
ac3filter_0_68b.exe
DivX.Pro.v5.0.3.exe
DivX412Codec.exe
DivXAF.0_4.exe
DivXG400.2_7.exe
divx_311alpha.exe
MPG4C32.DLL
MPG4DS32.AX
MPG4VKI.INF
XviD_Install.exe
ffdshow-20020617.exe
I think I do not need DivXAF.0_4 anymore,
which does anti-freeze, but only works for divx 3.11.
