Just thought i`d post my results testing this player
Overall 8/10 plays most things

The only problem so far is a few movies with no sound, eg Doom
However, i converted the audio to lame mp3 and it now works fine
not sure what the problem was, but Virtualdub reports the audio compression
as"unknown" and as VBR

UPDATE player went back to Aldi today for a refund
It played 7 out of 30 files with no problems, the other 23 files either exited before the end,
had no sound, stuttered and in 1 case distorted the video. In 2 cases cd1 played fine but cd2 had no sound! All discs and files checked out fine on PC
Think i`ll wait another year or so for the tecnology to improve to where it can play over 90% of DivX / Xvid files

Maybe you should have got the proper tc xvid version ;p Its obviously a proper for a reason, that prior versions were not right. Personally I get occasional tvrips and dont have any problems.

You said it yourself once you examined the audio in virtual dub that it was unknown etc... These audios on cams/ts can also be filtered etc... using there own custom filters, or programs that are already released which can also account for non standard.

Tevion has a great advantage of coping with varied video compression methods in xvid and is probably still the best stand alone for its price tag.
