Hey Mux, I think that I might have found a
solution. It's called Divx Doctor II, and it's
offered by 3ivx. Download it from the 3ivx
site, follow the operating instructions as
they are in the Read Me file, and see if it
works. Divx Doctor 2 actually changes
"Divx (.avi) files" to "3ivx (.mov) Quicktime
files". It does this with two codecs that
you have to download from the 3ivx site.
They are the WMA audio codec and the
3ivx D4 PR1 codec. The D4 PR1 codec is
for the video. Read all about it in the
Read Me section, it is really clear and
informative. It's a little hard to find the
WMA codec-You have to click the
Frequently Asked Questions link on the
Divx Doctor download page and then
scroll down to find it. I downloaded a Divx
file, transformed it with the doctor, and it
is beautiful. I can even watch the movie in
Double Screen mode in the Quicktime
player and it isn't grainy!! By the way, the
Doc doesn't transform the original avi file
into a a mov file, but rather makes a
brand new mov file that is totally
independent of the avi file and sticks it in
your "Translated Documents" folder that
is buried in the HD. To avoid this go to
File, Preferences in Divx Doctor, and
choose Ask, and it will ask you where you
want to save the new mov file that is
about to make for you! Best of all it is fast,
at least fast enough....mine took about
five minutes. And best of all, after you
have your new mov file to watch you can
throw away the old avi file! The mov file
doesn't need it. But make sure that you
check in ALL THREE BOXES at the
bottom right hand corner of the Doctor
screen. Anyway, you can read the
directions yourself, they are quite simple.
Happy Downloading!
