Hi everyone. I'm having some issues with the VMBV codec.

I'm running Doxbox .73 on Xp 32 bit, service pack 2.

I can't install it. I've tried running as admin, it still says "install failed." I did try installing it from a copy of Doxbox .65, which was successful, and I was able to view the avi in Windows Media Player. However, I am unable to use it in any editing software, such as Adobe Premiere or Adobe After Effects. I don't know if its because its an older version of the codec, but can you use these movies in any program besides windows media player? It doesn't seem windows media player is capable of exporting into any other compatible format for those applications. Should I just give up and use Fraps? I'd prefer not to, Fraps files are huge and have trouble capturing audio. I'm at a loss to make this codec work.

Thanks for the help.

Seems the codec is called zmbv (thanks Google.)
Try a different media player, VLC or mplayer.

You are 199k RAM short of having enough memory.
You need to buy more memory or remove any memory resident programs, Dude.
