When working with Avi2Dvd I get the following error message from ‘HCenc’ Error, AVISource: couldn’t locate a decompressor for fourcc XVID Hope someone can help.
Do you have Xvid installed, on your PC? Any AVI need its codec (DivX or Xvid). Please note: Xvid is free, DivX, if used only for DECodic purposes, is free, too. Or you can install some 'general decompressor' like FFDShow (which I don't like, because it 'manipulates' too much the Directshow filters used by my PC).
Hi. I've got K-lite codec full pack installed. Am I right in thinking xvid comes with that? If not where can I get it? Thanks for your reply.
I really hate codec packs. Since both Xvid and DivX are free (DivX is free for decoding purposes only), why should I bother to get a codec pack? Xvid codec: http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/ DivX codec: http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/download/ I'm sure you'll manage to view your AVI files (unless they are corrupt. In this case, get a movie checker/fixer like VideoFixer or DivxFix).
Haven't solved the problem with avi2dvd yet, but did manage to convert using nero vision express. Thanks for your help.
