well, my xvid movie come with some caption files, I wonder how do i view it in movie?

Also, how come it is so hard to find binary for Xvid codec? The one I use is released 8 months ago.

actually....you are half right. they look the same. media player 6.4 comes with every version of windows. Media Player Classic is an entirely new, update program that plays divx, xvid, etc and doesnt use directshow codecs :D , but it looks the same, so people get confused.

media player classic is REALLY great, i think its SO much better than windows media player :wub:

ok, dont use mplayer2 ever again. its horrible.

second, you dont get what we are saying. media player classic will load your subtitle files....playing in divx is just going to cancel that all out

a) mplayer classic wont laod my subtitle, it keep telling me to change the render option which I have done it like 10 times.

b) even if it loads subtitle, whats good about it if the output is garbage?

See attached imageeven if it loads subtitle, whats good about it if the output is garbage?Have you tried using FFDshow?
