Hi,

Did you compiled mplayer with divx4linux support?
if so, please upload this file, i'll check.

> I made an avi with transcode (using -y divx4 , so it would use
> ProjectMayo's libdivxencore to compress the avi) and it won't play with
> mplayer. mplayer tries to use the odivx codec, I think because of the
> 0x58564944 (DIVX) fourcc. When played this way, the audio is fine but
> video is black (this is xv output on MGA G200).

> A: It's not a DivX file, but an M$ MPEG4v3 . Update
