What codec is needed to play SPV E200 AVIs on a PC?

[Guest]

I ask as I can't play back videos created on my phone back on my pc?

The sound works for about 2 seconds and then it just skips to the end, the picture doesn't appear at all.

Try getting the latest Divx codec from Divx.com :)

Surely it doesn't use the DivX codec when you record using the video recorder. I'd be surprised if Microsoft would use that???

I do have it installed btw but it may need re-installing.

its not divx, theres was a post about this a while back, certain codec packs have it in:

Through that link I tried QuickTime which plays them fine, the funny thing is according to a program called G-Spot (which analyzes video files and tells you what codec you need) says I have two codecs for this file format.

Windows Media Player 9 can't play the file.

It's a pity I can't rename them to .mov as that way I could just double click on them but if I do QuickTime can no longer open them. I don't want to set AVIs to QuickTime as most of the time I use Windows Media Player 6.4 to open them.

I tried installing the trial M-JPEG codec but it made no difference.
