Kayleen007 Guest | I have dl a movie from Kazaa and it won’t play at all. It’s just a black screen without sound or picture. Same happened when I dl from imesh. If I dl from Morpheous it plays fine but it’s hell getting anything from there so I’d like to fix this problem with Kazaa. I have just downloaded divx, and that did no good. I also downloaded gspot. It says that it shows that DirectShow can play the video. But I don’t even have DirectShow and can’t seem to find what the hell that is anyway. Oh..and I also dl xvid. Pleaaaasse someone help. This really sucks! Thanks.

In any case, I’d recommend not using the bad spyware infested version of KaZaA. Use Kazaa Lite K++ Edition. It contains NO spyware or adware and has much more features.
If you can’t find Kazaa Lite K++, there’s always the option to use Chip’s program - DietKaza:

It will remove spyware and adware from the insidious versions of KaZaA.
Now, to the movie problem:
Download this:
The Faimous One’s Codec Finder
http://tfo.57host.biz/codecfinder/index.htm
Drop your movie into it. What does it say?
Keep in mind that there are fake files that people share.

Regular Rep: 0Joined: 14 Nov 2003 Posts: 615 OFFLINE | That’s a very low Video bitrate, hhmm:
Install and configure 3ivX:
http://www.3ivx.com/download/index.html
It should decode fine.
The actual codec that was used to encode the movie can be downloaded from www.divx.com . I don’t recommend installing that though as the free version has spyware and adware.

After further investigation I have found that the file with:
Video Codec FourCC: divx
Video Codec: DivX 5
Codec or Variant Installed?: YES!
Video Width x Height: 352 x 288
Video FPS/Bitrate: 25.000 / -12861620 kbit/s

would be/is a fake.
This one appears fake also, TNWRSTLER1:

Kayleen007 Guest | No..I haven’t had a chance to sign up for that other forum yet. Though, I do plan on it. I finally got tired of trying to deal with Kazaa and all that, so I dl eMule..and so far it’s taken me about 2 days and I’m not even half done with the file transfer, but if the damn thing plays it’ll be worth it, lol.

Regular Rep: 0Joined: 14 Nov 2003 Posts: 615 OFFLINE | Aha, infamous eDonkey2000 network. That’s a good network, there are less fakes.
Personally I use Shareaza (www.shareaza.com) to download from BitTorrent, eDonkey2000 (network eMule connects to), Gnutella1 & Gnutella2 and MP2P. It’s quite a good program.

Kayleen007 Guest | Well I hope so. If it’s going to take me a freaking week to dl this damn movie it better work, lmao!

Wired Guest | About that DIVX preview program... it added a “Send to Codec Finder 5” option to the context menu (when you right click a file). I’ve used the program, and now I want to remove it. I got rid of the .exe file, but that menu option is still there. How do I get rid of it?

Regular Rep: 0Joined: 14 Nov 2003 Posts: 615 OFFLINE | Hehe, that’s easy man :-). It just involves deleting the short-cut from your Send To directory.
Note: the actual program is already totally uninstalled. The thing that’s left over is only a short-cut.
For XP go to Start>Run and paste:
\Documents and Settings\Default User\SendTo
OR
\Documents and Settings\owner\SendTo
Now click OK and then delete the Codec Finder short-cut.
Done :-)
For Windows 95, 98, & Me users. This is what you paste into the Run window to access your Send To menu:
Windows\SendTo

TNWRSTLER1 Guest | Thanks for telling me that those files were fake. I tried downloadloading eMule and it said
" No valid servers to connect in serverlist found” I don’t know where to go to find a valid server. Ialso tried Sahareaza and it started downloading but there was no way to preview the file to see if it was downloading, or maybe it was just the version I had .
