Hi,

If you have a look here:

http://www.videoforums.co.uk/reviews/faq

At number 10 (the first one, not the second one - Marc, you need to sort this out ) then that should help you on your way to getting it sorted out. XviD is generally seen as the slightly better codec, but more people use DivX.
