i seem to have this problem when downloading the odd high filesized div x file. everynow and then the picture will freeze but the sound will keep playing and i have to manually move the slider bar to reinitialize the feed. now i dont want to know why this happens as i have a good enough idea as it is. all i want to know is if theres a way of fixing it. do i have to re-encode the whole thing to get rid of it or is there some way of configuring WMP to stop this fuck up in someway

Two questions:

1) Your machine specs?

2) Which version of the codec are you using?

Run it through Virtualdub, direct stream copy for audio and video. Should fix it up real quick.

I had that problem a lot with the old codecs. Grab the latest codec from www.divx.com and answer "Yes" when it asks if you want to play old files with the new codec.

cr0bar's solutions is also interesting. I've never tried it but it sounds reasonable.

if you're running NT/2K/XP, you can start the encode and then use Task Manager to drop the encoder's priority to "low". You won't even notice that the encoder is running... you can even play games.

Bah. You and your weak systems.

I encode DivX4.11 files, while burning CDs, and playing Counter-Strike at 60fps.

Thank god XP knows how to effectively toss around processor threads and a half-gig of DDR.
