Default Linux No picture in xvid files


Hello all.I'm relatively new to Linux,but am learning the hard way.In at the deep end and all that...

Anyhow,Im running Linux Puppy 4.2 on an old Dell Latitude laptop..Everythings going as swimmingly as can be expected for a new operating system!!

EXCEPT- I cannot get it to play xvid video files,which is gutting as most of my movies are in that format!What am I doing wrong,it only plays the sound.The idea was I use Linux on laptop for my media player and internet,and stick with XP purely for audio editing.Its not possible at the minute!

Please help,Im stuck!

Cheers

AW

Have you tried out vlc player? Usually, it solves all the problem under UNIX / Linux for all sort of video files.
