When you install DiVX, unclick the player option - you don't need it.

I really don't know the difference between the two. I have read several debates on which is better. There are strong advocates for both sides. The tutorial I did uses DiVX only because that is the way I learned. I no longer hard sub avi files so I never bothered trying XViD. The best I can suggest is try both and see which you like better.

I think they do a pro version and a free one, if I remember correctly. I'm not sure what the differences are though, I suspect about the're about equal. But if people have to resort to zooming 500% or getting the magnifying glass out, then I'm not interested. I'm a fan of the drama, not the technicalities involved in getting it to me.

Hi all Sad
I wanna resize my AVI file from 700 to 350 MB.
Please teach me!!! I have some problem that I download to install a Virtualdud program already. However I can't open my AVI file so I can't resize it...
Program told that "Couldn't locate decompressor for format XVID. Virtualdud requires a video for window (VFWX compatible codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those use by windows media player, are not suitable"

Thank u in advance for someone who is kindness Wub


If you still needed this trialware will do that: LINK
