Thanx Wildor, after installing 9 players and three codecs, Video Lan worked for me, you’re awsome.

Does anyone know where to get a ogm coverter to divx , xvid, of avi

if you need a place for oggds, then go here: http://www.divxmania.it/index.php?showtopic=3324 works like a charm for me.

where is that site?

I’ve tried all the packs and codecs listed on here, Lazy Man’s guide, several (+8) players, and I still can’t get OGM’s to work right. The movies I have been trying to watch always have a sound error that is a loud screeching noise and some even have a video error where it copies over some scenes with other backgrounds. I know it isn’t the file, please help me out.

I’d been using BS Player for awhile with the direct show filter, but I just reinstalled windows and thought I could find a better way, so here it is (and I’m running XP Pro, so I know it works with pro).

DL the DIVX codec:

DL the XVID codec:

DL the DirectShow filter:

and DL the Subtitle filter:

Now your OGM’s should work perfectly in Media Player 9, so you don’t have to download all kinds of other annoying players. Enjoy!

I just followed stpatty33’s advice and it uninstalled my wmp9. And when I try to reinstall it, it says that it couldn’y perform that action.

Same with me .. installed a lot of codecs .. till Gspot told me i had a right codec to play the video .. but i kept getting just the video withoud sound .. the last Straw was to try the Vlc .. and it really worked .. i normaly use the media player classic, and normaly it playes everything, even Dvd ´s dunno why it didnt work on this bloody file

hi use videocleaner

Thanks everybody posted to help for people !! God Bless you !

Hi...I’m using VLC Media Player for quite some time and i think that it is one of the best players out there.Here are some facts that illustrate it’s versatility and make it an absolute must for the PC.
It uses internal codecs supporting many formats including DivX,X-Vid,MPEG-1,2,3,4,OGM,ogg,mp3,CD-Audio, without installing any codec to your system that might conflict with your existing configuration. .It has build in subtittle support(you won’t need Direct VobSub).It’s a full featured DVD Player that automatically bypasses the region protection of the Disc.It plays streaming video and can be used as a server, it supports skins,playlists, partialy downloaded(incomplete) files and anything you can find in a common media player.All these come with many configuration options for adjusting it to your preference(and your machine)The best part is that it’s open-source software so you can use it, change it and distribute it freely without any restriction(read GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE for details).
No, I’m not working for the VideLAN team, it’s just a great piece of software.http://www.moviecodec.com/mb/images/s/smiley.gif

I was trying to find something to play *.ogm files with and I downloaded VLC after I was being fed up with codecs that either didn’t work or f***ed my pc up. And then this funny thing happened... IT WORKED! just like that! No 'Invalid Codec’or *Unknown file format* or anything like that. I have only just started testing it with other file formats, but so far everything is working A-ok ^_^

Thanks for the good advice from Wizard - my only exception is that you do not need to install the cole2k codec pack, just the ogg vorbis filter stuff. Media Player says it doesn’t recognise the file type but it plays just fine anyway - manually associate .ogm

I need something that will burn the ogm file to DVD video. Does anyone know of any app.

i dLed the VLC player as well. worked like a charm. all i need to do now is figure out how to save all my stuff in an eaily accessible way (no re-adding each time to play)
thanx guys!

I used the package from http://tobias.everwicked.com/ (First link posted.)
with Media player 10 and it worked great!
Thanks for the info.

plese donwlods to ogm codec

I have tried Video Cleaner and WinAVI Video Converter and both crash when I’m trying to convert the OGM to AVI(or anything else for that matter). Anyone got a program that WORKS that will convert?
