Dear all,
Is not vlc has divx support ?
I am runnig debian lenny. The installed vlc is 0.8.6.h-4+lenny2
But when I open an .avi file having divx format the progress bar of vlc only proceds with out any sound or video. Has any one faced the same problem ? Is there any fix for this problem ?
One more thing. The sound output for mp3 files are very very low in vlc.
Thanks

Use View->Messages to see what the problem is. You can also use View->Stream and Media Info to find out more about the file (i.e., check that it really is DivX).

VLC always played DivX out of the box for me (mp3 too) - try removing then installing it again to check if it fixes the problem - if you where on Ubuntu I would suggest installing the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" package too, but im not sure how that is handled on Debian
