Hi, I had a explorer.exe error on some of my .avi files. I got the error whenever
I tried to play the file, check properties or tried to burn it in NERO. After some
browsing (this tread and many more) I came upon some suggestion of it being related
to a codec problem. I had recently installed SLD 1.5 Pro beta 6, I uninstalled it
and all troubled files played without any problems. I do think it's not the SLD codec
pack in particular, but just one of the codecs included. If you encountered the problem
after installing any oder codec pack, just uninstall and see what happens. I now
use SLD 1.5.3 and without problems.
Hopefully I could be of help for some of you out there... Greetings.
