52181 2002-06-03 02:43:00 My friend copied a downloaded movie from the internet and he copied onto a CD for me. It is in AVI format. When I opened it, the movie only played the sound and not the images. I opened the file with Window Media Player and I am using Window ME. Then I played the movie on Real Player, it said cannot find VIDS.MP34 decompressor .......... So it doesn't work. Can you tell me what the problem is? Guest (0)

The problem is, obviously you don't have the required codec to play the movie.

Of more help is the solution, go to the following link and download DivX 5, install then enjoy your movie.

To get around this try downloading Divx at

http://www.divx.com/

Then open up the avi as normal hope this helps, could also have a look at ths site as it seems to resemble the error you are getting with realplayer.
