Problem with audio video sync. with AVI files

[mallik]

Hi, as stated above, I'm having problems playing .avi files. They seem to play fine, but the audio and video are not in sync. In some cases the video lags quite a bit behind the audio. I don't seem to have problems playing .mpg files though. Has anybody had this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

need more info ..

the encoding codec of the file .. xvid, divx, etc
what codecs you have installed .. or ffdshow filters
your hardware, primarily CPU and GPU

all 3 can effect your viewing of AVIs

It might be your codec. Try installing an updated version of the codec or changing to another one.

Sorry for the lack of info. The file is a divx file. I'm pretty sure I have the latest divx and xvid codecs. I'm not sure what ffdshow filters are, sorry. The CPU is a duron 700, and the GPU Voodoo 3 2000.
