HI,

So, I have been struggling with this for over a week, I've searched many times, and can't find the right answer.

MY BT was working fine, and than my computer had to be reformatted and since that time it doesn't....

Well, no that's not right, it works downloads fine, but something is up with the codecs- The sound and the visuals are off. I can see the image, but the sound is playing faster than the picture is showing. Has been happening for the last 3 weeks now....



damn annoying

I have DIV x- latest version,

Xvid, Gspot, and Nimo- but I'm going to get rid of them all and start again...

Does anyone have any suggestions, I'm looking forward to a good night of bit tv...


Thanks so much.

Cheers,

Chonbuk

I find VLC plays a lot of stuff that other apps won't, but sometimes you're just out of luck.

You can also go to vcdhelp.com

Click on tools and then get a program named G-Spot. This will tell you what Codec is used on the video/audio. You can then download what you need.

Hi Chiaa,

I have g-spot, and the files usually come back as being x-vid types.

I also have x-vid, but I have no idea how to use it- that mini-calc comes up, and I start trying all sorts of options but I'm not sure if/how it works.

I have the new lost to watch tonight, I'll try again with div x, and than go for vcd


It is so annoying watching something, that you heard the charcters say 30 seconds earlier....


thanks,

Chonbuk
