I was easily able to do this with the free version - so I figured the pay version would make it even easier?

This has got to be some kind of bug. If anyone has information on how to fix My DVD9 so that you can add DIVX avi files, please let me know.

thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for posting this issue as I have the same one as well. I did go to the link provided in the above response. I made sure to follow the directions very carefully, but the outcome was the same...unable to import any AVI files (Divx). Here is my question:
Should the Divx codec be the only divx codec in System 32? I do see other .ax files. Is this ok? Looking forward to your help.

There are a few other Divx*.ax files in my System32 folder.

Thanks Beerman, but I still am not able to import any AVI files. I have done the above steps. I do have another DVD Authoring program on my computer. Should I uninstall it? Also, MYDVD 9 freezes up when I try to import any video file that works. Any thoughts?

Now that you've mentioned it freezes when adding any files, it's hard to tell if it's an divx problem are not. What other authoring program do you have?

I have Ulead Movie Factory 5 and it worked great in July of 2006. For some reason, it suddenly stopped allowing me to import AVI files and this is why I went ahead and purchased Roxio My DVD 9 thinking this would solve my problems. I unistalled the Ulead program. To address the freezing problems...I updated my video driver (it was outdated) and it greatly improved the performance of the Roxio program. A LOT! NO FREEZING UP!!! I still can't import any AVI files. And now, when I view the AVI files using Windows Media Player, there's a choppy line that sometimes appears during playback. WIERD. If its not one thing...its another. Your replies are very appreciated.

It's never a good idea to come into a thread with a 'me too' as usually the problems aren't the same

However - did you check the link that Paul gave in post number 2?

Have you also updated to the latest version of DirectX 9c? If you have problems viewing the avi files with WMP then the problem is with the avi files or with your hardware. What video card do you have in your system? What are your system specs?

Did you read my post (no 15) in that sticky thread?
I also had some problems when first following the directions gibven by MTolman, and reported how I fixed those (see UPDATE section of my post).

[smapti]

I do not have a DivXDec.ax file, so I do not think there is a confliction between this and the divxdec.ax file I have. I do have a DivXMedia.ax file, but because it has a different name, I don't think there would be a confliction. My registry contains the following files for DIVX:

DivX.dll
divx_xx0c.dll
divx_xx07.dll
divx_xx11.dll
DivXCodecUpdateChecker
divxdec.ax
DivXMedia.ax
divxsm
DivXsm
DivXWMPExtType.dll

please provide any suggestions. thanks.

You need BOTH of the files in the correct places - read this topic

Thank everyone for your help with this similar situation concerning the importing of AVI files. It work out ok. Now if I can create the menu I like or find someplace where there are a great selection of pre-made menu templates....that would be cool. Enjoy and thanks again.
