well, i hope you can help me. I´ve downloaded some .avi videos from internet and none of my media player can play it. Then it pop-up a window that send me to ligos.com. The cdec I need is only for windows XP and they charge me with 15 dls for it... and man... that sucks.

I´ve downloaded the 5.1 codec version but the 5.2 is the one I need. Without it, I only have audio on my .avi files, but not video.

Have a nice day, I really hope you can help me

I’m very surprised version 5.1 of Indeo failed, and that video is disabled but not audio!
Can you double check the fourcc of the file using gspot or avicodec? Is it either IV50 (Indeo 5) or IV41 (Indeo 4)?
As a last resort you can try version 5.11 (http://www.mrs.umn.edu/~joos/personal/game/MILO/iv5setup.exe)
If this still fails get the QuickTime Player (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone) and the Indeo 5 plugin for QuickTime (http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software
_Updates/English-North_American/DOS-Windows/QuickTime/IndeoVideo5.zip - you’ll have to unzip the contents to your c:/windows/system32 folder).
