By updating codecs on iomega how to play AVI files

Hello Gloriawburbage,

AVI is a container file. There are many codecs that can be used in an AVI. AVI file that plays on the Iomega Screenplay plus has MPEG-4 encodings in avi container (XVID) and MP3 Audio.

If you are trying to convert a dvd movie to avi then AutoGK (Auto Gordian Knot) 2.55 codec should be a good one. It will produce video in avi with Xvid codec which is very similar to divx.

The Fair Use Wizard is another good option.

Please Go Here to find more conversion programs.

Updating codecs may also help. Screenplay Plus Firmware Version R1.20 is available.

Please Go Here to download and install it. Kindly read the instructions there before installing the firmware.

Hope this will solve your problem.

Best regards.
