Where do I get mpeg2dmx.ax file? |
|
|
Hello!
I was having problems with Windows Media Player v6.4 and 9.0 (10 didn't
help) in playing back MPEG-2 files I made from my new Air2PC-ATSC-PCI
HDTV tuner (http://www.bbti.us/products_air2pc_atsc_pci.htm) and DVB
Viewer v4.3.2 (using Sonic CinePlayer DVD Decoder that came on the
CD-ROM). The outputs were the videos and audios in very slow motion.
Playing my recordings in WinDVD 6 and PowerDVD 5 didn't show these
symptoms. Media Player Classic v6.4.8.7 and VideoLAN Client Media Player
v0.8.4a seem to use their own MPEG-2 decoders which suck (e.g., choppy
[not slow motion] and show pixels (refresh problem?). I am using Windows
XP Pro. SP2 (all updates) on an Athlon 64 3200+ system with 1.5 GB of RAM.
I was told to try mpeg2dmx.ax file from someone into Windows' system32
folder/directory (never had this file since Windows Explorer didn't
overwrite an old copy), register it, and try again. I tested both
Windows Media Players and they worked smoothly! I asked where this file
came from, and he said it was from Elecard. I never used their products
on this computer.
Are there any other sources where this file come from? Is XP supposed to
include it? I have had Windows XP installation for over three years.
Thank you in advance. :)

I'm unaware of the origins of that file. Easiest thing to do first is to
check file properties. If those don't indicate anything (version # can also
be indicative), you can simply view the binary in your favorite text editor
and scan for useful strings.
