    Hi,
    can anybody tell me if they can see this file correctly on their computer?

    http://stefanstennis.free.fr/interactive/clips/symphony.avi

    If so, which codecs do I have to download? I can see the file on my pc, but, when I try to view it from other PCs, it gives me several problems.
    Please give me feedback

    Mauro

    google the term ' "Gspot" + codec ' and dl that program. It will tell you what codec the avi file needs.

    be careful as searching for 'gspot' will come up with NSFW sites... :p

    Use FFDShow

    It will decode almost every compressed video and audio. :)

    Just be careful of codec packs. Going and installing every codec in the pack will cause problems (I had .avis that were flipped horizontally and vertically, others had an echo effect with the sound, and still others froze my PC as the codecs were having a bitch-fight with each other). Rather find the ones you need and dl them seperately
