I have an avi encoded with this codec supposed to be xvid but all the codecs
I have used won't play it, does anybody know where I can get a codec to
decode this movie codec?

[Vasiliy Efimenko]

Try some CodecPack or FFDShow.

If you have a movie and can't seem to get it to play, odds are you have a
conflicting or missing codec. A CODEC (compressor/decompressor) allows you
to play movies and such. To find out exactly what codecs are required to
watch your movie, you can use one or both of two excellent little
utilities:

AVICodec and Gspot. Both AVICodec and GSpot can be used to determine the
codecs required for a movie to play. AVICodec, despite its name has better
MPEG capabilities and thus is reccomended for MPEG files (such as those for
(S)VCDs). GSpot on the otherhand is far more efficient for scanning AVI
files. Both programs offer unique features also, AVICodec allows you to
queue up and entire folder to for checking in addition to providing direct
links to sites where codecs can be downloaded; GSpot allows for 'rendering'
of files (to check to see if the system can actually play the file with the
available codecs and to check for fakes.

AVICodec can be downloaded from http://avicodec.duby.info/ and GSpot can be
downloaded from http://www.headbands.com/gspot/


Here's another one recently found -

A site I like for downloading codecs is: http://www.free-codecs.com

I have ffdshow ace mega codec pack, storm codec pack, yet nothing seems to
be able to play this file, my quesiton is very simple has anyone ever heard
of such a codec "AutoGK.XviD-1.0.2.MP3-128.ABR" where can I get it?

[RobertPatrick]

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are a troll.

What is the precise name of the file ?
just a thought that there maybe a problem with the suffix and maybe one dot
too many?

try renaming it to "whatever.avi" without the quotes

[Nospam]

Haven't had any such problems with other filenames with suffixes and
multiple dots before it's called

Serenity.DVDRip-Widescreen.English.[AutoGK.XviD-1.0.2.MP3-128.ABR].scotto.av
i

[Netmask]

As I suggest simply change the name to Scotto.avi and see if that helps -
you have nothing to loose by experimenting

[Netmask]

Did you have any success in playing this file - I know someone who is having
a similar problem and would be interested in a solution
