Problem with streaming some videos through Orb

I use Orb to watch some movies and listen to music from my computer at school when I'm at home. Most of the movies work just fine, except for a lot of DivX or XviD encoded ones. Most of them have a blank thumbnail, and when I go to stream it I only get audio. Oddly enough, though, a few of the DivX encoded videos do stream just fine. I have the CCCP along with MPC and WMP10 installed, and if I am playing a regular local file, anything plays no problem in both MPC and WMP10. So it seems to only be a streaming through Orb issue, and only with about 80% of DivX encoded files.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Found a fix.

Install the 3ivx codec on your host machine and set DirectShow priority to High in its settings.
