Thanks Guys This solved all my probs!! 
I am having the same problem. Can you recomend a fix??
The divx 5 codec *should* be able to handle divx 3, but it doesn’t always work. if it fails get the divx 3.11 codec here.

I have the opposite problem. The picture comes through perfectly, but there is no sound. I have DivX Pro 5.2.1, and have tried downloading the file over agian, and reinstalling. If someone could help me solve this problem that would be great. Thanks!
