Hello,
Sorry to intrude but this crosses a recent problem of mine.
Out of curiosity I made a DivX (several in fact, trying with encoding 3
4 and 5/XviD) with D-Vision. This resulted each time in an avi file
which I burnt using ISO 9660 on Toast or DOS format in DiskUtility.
None would show on my Philips 632, supposed to read any of the 3:
reading seems to occur but no sound and screen remains black.
What did I miss ?
Files were 690 Mo as expected, read well from the burnt CD on the Mac,
only the Philips 632 plays dumb. Any idea what went astray ?
