problems with Top Gear episode 2004.11.21

MortyBubba · January 27th, 2005, 07:50 PM

i've downloaded Top Gear episode 2004.11.21 twice right now and each time i only get full sound but no visuals

is there anyway for this episode to be fixed so video is added?

does anyone else have this problem?

You need the XviD codec: http://files.viper007bond.com/software/latest-xvid.exe

and this will work with Azureus?

ESPNSTI · January 27th, 2005, 09:45 PM

Azureus is the program that downloads the file, and has nothing to do with how it's played back.
In other words, there is no need to download it again.

Thank you so much for the info, that Xvid thing worked

thanks again

XviD is just the video codec that the video was compressed with.

Get a codec pack...

Yuck. Those can cause codec conflicts and I advise against it.

Made a perma-link: http://files.viper007bond.com/software/latest-xvid.exe

It'll redirect you to the latest version of XviD that I have on my server. 8)

I disagree, I've never had any problems with the Kazaa Mega Codec Pack. 8)

Just don't check any of the file associations at the end of the install images/smilies/lol.gif

Ditto... A lot of non nerd friends of mine had problems with vids on the last LAN... Everybody got Tsunamis codec Pack and since then everything fine for everybody...

I have downloaded your latest codec and still can't see this episode, all other episodes of Top Gear & Fifth Gear are fine. Help

Buba · February 2nd, 2005, 11:47 AM

Then go to www.codecguide.com and get a pack...

bone · February 2nd, 2005, 02:34 PM

install videotoolbox

it'll analyse the vid, let you know if the codec is intalled, and if not, directs you to a website where you can download it

Buba · February 2nd, 2005, 04:54 PM

Or, Gspot, its the classic tool for it...
Included in most of the codec packs...

Thanks Guys, after downloading the latest K-Lite Codec Pack I was finally able to watch the episode.

Many thanks again images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

arandil · February 6th, 2005, 05:48 PM

well i have the same problem. All my other xvid's work, even all the other episodes from top gear that i downloaded here. Thumbs up for the site btw! But i ran Gspot on this episode, and it gave a partial render failure. Any thoughts on what to do?

Viper007Bond · February 7th, 2005, 02:27 AM

Make sure you have a pretty recent version of XviD: http://files.viper007bond.com/software/latest-xvid.exe

arandil · February 8th, 2005, 10:47 AM
