Playing the files aren't necessarily a problem. When I mentioned this before, I was directed to download Divx. Being on dial-up, I really didn't want to, and then, I remembered that another video player came with this "Total Video Converter" software I had -- Total Video Player. It actually played the Divx encoded files, but it had the forementioned garbled screen problems when one re-selects a position that wasn't present when playing regular AVI files with TVP. However, I suspect it's the video player causing the problems. Regardless, I can play the files, I just find it an inconvenience to have to resort to other video players than my "all-in-one" to play files that won't even play 100% right in the first place.
