Not Playing: XVID-AVI MPG4 Simple@L3

[smeukh]

Hi all,

I have a file which is not played correctly on my HDX (january firmware), the playback is very very very choppy, and no sound either. The exact same file plays on my dvd/divx player (peekton).

The encoding seems pretty standard to me.

Any help appreciated, I can upload it somewhere if syabas wants to investigate.

Remux it to a new opendml avi container using Virtualdubmod in direct copy mode and test again.
Remember to reboot the PCH before trying to play the new file.
