I am planning on building a video jukebox. I just dloaded some vids that use Xvid codec. Video plays but no audio. I tried VideoLan that is self supporting. Vids worked like a charm. I did research on the Xvid and discovered a problem with directsound. You can try to do the simple fix of changing from directsound to wav output. Best results is a utility called AC3Filter. It fixed everything in windows (sound issue). Now the Juke program plays video/sound perfectly now.

I know this is not directly arcade, but it is arcade related :) I know this will save some headaches messing with some codecs.

Xvid Codec

Not this application, but I too, have had this problem before with XVID. Some of the big codec pack downloads have the corrected codecs in them... sometimes you get a lot of stuff you don't need too. I think the latest K-Lite codec pack is right.

Which front-end are you using... if any?

Sk-Jukebox, I really like it :) Downside, it shows 4 at a time. Having near 200 and counting, it can take alot of flipping pages to get to the CD you want.
