I have a movie file that was encoded in DivX. Basically I ran a filter in VirtualDubMod, (brightness/contrast) as the movie was too pale. I saved the new avi using Xvid.

Now when I open it in TMPG it's black and white with a 45 degree slant to the left with the next frame appearing in the top right hand corner. There are also noticable scanlines. I'd attatch an image but I can't see where you can do that.

When I play the avi in a media palyer it plays fine, but in TMPG I get this weird picture. What could be wrong?

Thanks.[/IMG]

UnCheck directshow support in the environnement settings of TMPGENC (tab VFAPI) and try again.

Because in you case Directshow filter took priority on the real codec and it seems that this filter was a crap

All is matter of what is installed on your PC and in wich order it was installed. Each PC is a different situation.
