11-8-2009: Sorry for the inconvenience. We finally upgraded to vBulletin 3 !! See you there, Larry Avi loses sound and then speeds up!Go to the Tech-Forums Discussion Home PagePosted by: AndyMGxyz Hi everyone, I have a bit of a problem. I downloaded a movie file and it played fine when i played it in wmp9. But, i closed the program down and then, when i reopened wmp9 and i loaded the movie i skipped it to about 30 mins where i left off and the picture then speeded up and the sound went. I managed to find out that the problem starts at around 17 mins in the movie. I have xvid, divx and all the obvious codecs installed. Posted by: Ecniv I have seen many times with WMP9 if you skip ahead it will lose sync and look like a japanese move. I would let it play through and see if it happens when you dont skip. If its always in the same place in the movie and your not skipping, id imagine its a bad rip. Posted by: AndyMGxyz yes, even when i don't skip it it still goes out of sync. whem i first downloaded it it was in sync but now it is not. could i of corrupted it Posted by: Ecniv NO, if it happens at the same point in the movie, then it is just a bad rip. Try getting another copy Posted by: AndyMGxyz Thanks, i know next time as well. This site is pretty helpful and responses are fast, thanks ;-) Posted by: AndyMGxyz Ive just tried the divx alpha player with my file and the sound and video stays in sync with each other when in wmp9 it does not. But, when i skip a bit of it the player crashes. Does that mean that the fiel is not corrupt or a bad rip but wmp9 has a fault?? Posted by: Ecniv Well, if the Divx Player is crashing it may still be a corrupt file. When a files gets corrupted, it can cause different problems for different players. WMP is very good at staying stable and keeping from crashing, sometimes by sacrificing quality. It may also be a problem with the codecs. I would try installing the NIMO codec pack only instead of specific codecs. Search on google for it. Posted by: Ecniv Umm, micro..... he said when he skips the file in divx,,,,,, it crashes. ;-) and in WMP it just loses sync. When you install a codec it works for all media players installed on the computer. I use WMP9 for all of my movie files, I just installed the NIMOP codecs and now I never have a problem playing a movie file. Posted by: AndyMGxyz i have installed the nimo codecs but when i open a movie in wmp9 the screen is upside down?!!?how can i correct this? Posted by: AndyMGxyz OK, i uninmstalled the nimo codec and the movies in wmp9 are now the right way round so that me=ust mean its he codec. any ideas?

[/B][/QUOTE] hmm. Ive had this problem a few times. Sometimes having too many codecs can cause probelms, try installing the Nimo lite package ONLY and see if it plays. Posted by: AndyMGxyz ok. first off, yes, i have instaled the divx 5 codecs as came with the pro version. Second, no it is not porn lol, it is a cartoon film kind of thing and it is a bout 128mg big. it starts about 17 minutes in in wmp9 and in the alpha player when i skip it past 17 mins it messes up but it plays fine in the alpha player unlesss i try skipping it. It is an avi file and the reason i want tot skip it is because its just short of two hours and im an hour into it so its a bit of a nuisance having to watch an hour of it again and if it crashes i will have to watch it again. Posted by: AndyMGxyz btw, i will uninstall the divx codecs and install the nimo ones... Posted by: AndyMGxyz ok. Ive uninstalled all the codecs and clean installed the nimo ones. But, i stil have the reversed upside down problem. and, my movies play slightly faster. Should i insall the old ones, ie the divx 5 and xvid ones? Posted by: AndyMGxyz so i should maybe try and convert it into a divx format and see if that helps??if so, what quality settings etc as i have never done a divx conversion.
