Talk:Indeo

does anyone know of the differences in the different versions of the Indeo Video codecs? For instance, what are the major differences between Indeo Video v3 (IV32) and Indeo Video 4/5 (IV41, IV51)? Maybe some discussion of this would be useful in the article. --74.179.110.115 (talk) 22:18, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The information that no open source software supports Indeo 4/5 is not correct. Indeo version 4 and 5 are supported by XAnim(which has not been further developed since 1999) and also by MPlayer (which took over the source from XAnim). Maybe we should add this information. 85.181.112.22 (talk) 00:00, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Be bold! I will remove the incorrect info. 76.243.204.175 (talk) 08:32, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually MPlayer supports Indeo through Win32 DLLs. As for XAnim, the website contains info that at least version 3.2 was implemented under NDA and the source code cannot be released. It is also highly doubtful all the XAnim source code went into MPlayer, considering the former's license. EFraim7 (talk) 20:39, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While Microsoft officially says that the Indeo codecs are no longer supported on Windows 7, they still work if installed manually - that is, drop the dll in system32 and register with regsvr32. (Not adding because it's original research, but I felt it worth mentioning.) --99.155.67.243 (talk) 05:58, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This must be kidding: in the article is the path C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe. Or was that vandalism and should be System32? 85.217.51.162 (talk) 21:30, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was the one who made that edit, the path is correct, you can try it yourself if you are using windows. Comrinec (talk) 17:23, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
