Divx/xvid

[Chris Lemire]

sudo apt-get --purge remove mplayer; rm ~/.mplayer;sudo apt-get install mplayer
   
  that would reinstall it and remove any configuration files that could be causing the problem like having it for the first time. you could also check your settings or preferences for the codecs. otherwise, revert to the older version of mplayer.

  Ok, I don't know whats happened but within the past couple of weeks something must have been upgraded, but now everytime I play an xvid video I get an error in mplayer saying that I dont have an xvid codec installed yet the video will play in a window but I can't control it from the mplayer controls etc. and the framrate is garbage
