    ShareReactor ignorance

    Ladies & Gentlemen:

    Please pardon this neophile's question, but...
    It all started with MP3's and this downloading has taken on new dimension.

    I use iMesh, on an XP pc with the latest Windows Media player version 9.
    I have some codecs from DivX and FFD or FDD, and most movies ( avi's ) play fine.
    The lastest one ( Ballistic ) has ShareReactro imbeddd in the name. For the life of me, I've tried many things including joining ShareReactor to try to figure this out.

    I have d/l'ed Nemo's pack, and DivX 5.0 and still no video playback.
    Nemo crashes WMP 9, so luckily I did a System checkpoint and a restore.

    Any hints, clues, comments, or name calling would be helpful.

    thanks

    ShareReactor part deux

    Also, Tha Playa doesn't want to load when I downloaded and clicked on the .exe file. Could be corrupt, not sure.
    Found it in iMesh.

    thanks again

      Load the AVI file into GSpot or Virtualdub, in order to obtain the FIle Information. Post what you see here.

        Anyway, what does "Sharereactors Ignorance" have to do with the fact that it isnt working. Sharereactor is not a group which rips movies.

        As for the movie not working, do as enchanter suggested, or try using BSplayer to view the movie. It should work.
        Did you know you can SEARCH the forum? Fixes common problems too:

          Thanks.

          I meant my ignorance of sharereactor files, not sharereactor ignorance. I was mis-interpreted. Sorry.

          Since I only had 2 posts per day... I did heed advice. Downloaded GSpot but could not post results. Still cannot post since I am in Chicago and not home. The copy of BSPlayer I downloaded would not install, and it was late so I gave up. When I return home I will post GSpot results. Thanks for the assist, sorry for the mis-understanding.

            What does it say in the Video and Audio format boxes? Does it say that you have the right codecs installed?

              Appreciate your help. GSpot seems interesting.

              The jpg is a screen grab of the results after feeing the file in.

                Can't see anything attached in your post . . .

                Looks suspicious here though. There should not be nothing in the box with a legitimate AVI file.

                Nandub does not encode XviD-compressed AVIs . . .

                  Jpg file was to big to insert. I compressed it a bit. Maybe now.

                  Appreciate your help.

                    Here's what. Uninstall the current XviD codec that you have from Nimo. Download and install Koepi's latest Unstable build (Unstable or Stable does not matter for playback purposes), which includes the simple and bug-free plain vanilla decoder. Try playing the file in WMP 6.4 (Run the command 'mplayer2.exe' from the Run command).

                    Failing that, do the following:
                    1. Open file in nandub
                    2. Set both Video and Audio tabs to Direct Stream Copy
                    3. Go to File -> Save as AVI... and give a name to the new file

                      In a word... Thanks. Simple, I admit, but words alone cannot express my appreciation.

                      I downloaded Xvid, and some other codec. Also downloaded a good copy of BSPlayer. Now, both WMP and BSPlayer work.

                      Life is good, so are you. Wish more people were as kind., The world would be a better place.

                      Also, the knowledge you have shared with me, I have shared with others and they thank you too.

                      Thank You.

                      p.s. still searching for a good copy of nandub but I am content with everything as is.

                        Always glad to lend a helping hand.

                        Perhaps you can find nandub here. Otherwise, full installers of GordianKnot should have nandub bundled as well. Good luck.
