Can't play avi's at all!

[karen morrison]

I'm new to APMS. I have been trying to get an avi video to play. Version 2 tells me that the associated application is missing. Version 3002 just doesn't play the videos. I can play the avi's normally on my system but not through APMS. Is this because it's using a different codec?
Also can I get it to play a divx avi through an external player? How do I do this?

Thanks very much for any help.

Re: Can't play avi's at all!

I just tried the program again on my second "antique" computer and it worked!!! Even the divx compressed clip played after I installed the divx5 codec. Why doesn't it play on my good computer. I have all the codecs and players installed????
