Green and pixelated playback of avi clips

louiseluxI solved a minor technical problem tonight. Go me. This is by way of a record in case I ever have the same problem again, or if someone is having the same problem, then it might help you out.
Real player was not letting me see avi clips that use the Xvid codec (you can tell they use this codec because they say Xvid after them). The clips were green and massively pixelated. Annoyingly they were the Reload eps that I spent about 10 hours downloading.
I downloaded X-vid Binary - didn't work.
Downloaded FDDshow - it worked!
If that hadn't worked, I would have installed the avi 4cc changer, and changed XVID to DIVX in the settings.
Or apparently using VideoLAN player solves the green pixelation problem too.
