HI,
I usually play all .vob and .mpeg video files in Virtual DJ.
I have a video that has a .divx extension. I noticed VDJ did not see/read it. I simply changed the extension to .avi and it sems to work on my home system in VDJ.
before I move it over to my gig system, do .avi files play NO PROBLEM just like my .vob and mpegs????
thanks!!!!

I have no problems with mine. Most of my videos are Divx encoded.

HI again,
well I just changed the extension to .vob and that plays too!!!! I am happy- which one is better to change the extension to play in VDJ? .avi or .vob?
thanks,

Be careful with changing the extension without knowing what format the file is in. The internal VDJ decoder does a good job of figuring out what it is playing regardless of the extension. Other programs may not be so forgiving. If you are not sure what format your video is in, there is a program called Gspot (www.headbands.com/gspot/) which will tell you everything you wanted to know about that video file. (But were afraid to ask.) Once you install it, just right click on the video and it will tell you everything.

HI,
if the original extension is .divx and I change it to .vob and it plays fine in VDJ, I should be ok then?

I would change it to .AVI because technically that is the container used for DIVX files. VOB is a totally different animal.

As funkturnal suggested leave the .divx extension on the file.
Add it to the Config->Codecs tab however, I would leave it on the Video Decoder option
.divx - Video Decoder
If you have problems with it then change to the Windows Media Player video decoder.
VirtualDJ should be able to handle the DivX codec internally.
