    Can it be done? How do you install other codecs in this thing?

    The help file even says you have to install the codecs, but doesn't say how. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Google for the K-Lite codec pack. You should be good to go after that.

    Well, I have DivX and the Community Codec Pack in Windows, is that similar? In XP, I can play almost any file, just not in Media Direct.
