Divx to Avi or mpeg
 

Are there any programs to convert from divx to a format wmp will play without additional codecs?

Don't use WMP.
Use VLC :)

No codecs needed. It'll play pretty much anything.

BTW, Divx is a codec. AVI and MPEG if I remember right are wrappers. That means you can have movie.avi or movie.mpg which are both encoded in Divx.

:iagree: VLC is the best player.

The list is long..... here are some editing and re encoding programs that can go to avi or other formats.....

Guys thanks for your help. For my laptop I installed the K-lite codec pack and use windows media player classic. I needed to convert some files for a presentation at work for use with wndws med playr because we can't install anything on those machines. I now use Video Cleaner to convert. Unbelievably easy to use and goes to and from many formats; also does batch conversions. It's not free, but go to isohunt.com and youll be good to go.
