I am a complete retard with regard to playing movies in Divx and I just tried and ran into some issues.

I have a 3 different types and I have no idea how to get them to work.

One is an .MP4, one a .bin (VCD?) and the last is a .MOV.

The I grabbed the codecs from DivOS, 3ivx and Jamby and I can't get any to work. The closest I get is the .MOV which will play sound, but the screen looks like the horizontal hold is waaay off with green lines running amok.

The .bin I have no clue how to play, it is a VCD, I think and have not idea what to do. And the MP4 I am at a total loss for what to do.

Clue me in someone?

Ok,

Figured out the .bin and converted it to MPEG. That was easy once you know how.

Now just the MP4 and the green lines in the Divx movie. I am getting a copy of the MP4 in MPEG1 format, this week, so I don't rally care if i can get that one to work.

Anyone have any ideas on the Divx problem?
