TVideoGrabber does not include any codec. You must install separately a third-party MPEG2 decoder, e.g. like the GPL MPEG1/2 decoder. The following DVD packs (recommended by Microsoft) include MPEG2 decoders. Note: if you have a video capture board, check if it shipped with a DVD player software (e.g. WinDVD, PowerDVD, etc…). By installing the DVD Player software, a licensed MPEG2 decoder will be automatically installed. Several of these DVD players are shipped with the InterVideo MPEG2 decoder. This codec works well with TVideoGrabber but does not support running from the IDE. Explorer crashes when opening a DivX video This is a conflict between the DivX and XVid codecs.
