Trouble with avi and divx

[billgoldberg]

I presume Boxee uses it's own Codecs because the avi and divx films I can watch without any problem are scrambled when using Boxee.

Any fixes?

In the future, will you be able to use your own codecs?

Also when I watch movies off my external HDD, Boxee can't seem to be able to find any metadata for it.

The icon is "Ix" and some error about it not being under media shares.

that's not a codec issue, that's the famous ghosting issue. :)
try this thread: http://forum.boxee.tv/showthread.php?t=148
two line answer: some video cards do that and a ini file change seems to fix it.

Thanks, fixed it now.

I also got the slow interface bug on my intel based pc, the one where you need to set vsync to "0".

When fixing this I couldn't help myself and added this line

<loglevel>xx</loglevel>

No matter what I put between them, I can't get rid of that info line on boxee.

I tried everything from -10 to 10, removed the line. It keeps sitting there.
