Large .mov File Refusing To Play
« on: March 14, 2004, 10:57:00 AM »

I have a 1.4 Gig .mov file, and it's refusing to play. Is it just cause XBMC won't support files that big, or is that because of the fomrat? I have access to Premiere, so i could try to re-encode it in something like MPEG. Let me know
Thanks  <

ok, i think i got it
the video is encoded in 3vix format (http://www.3ivx.com) and i am guessign that XBMC doesn't have the right codec. I am just going to convert it to something like MPEG  <
