AVI chunk viewer

[abel]

When I just put a mouse on some .avi file in my PC, all of sudden appears strange graph, indicated as AVI chunk viewer, it is very persistent and shows repeatedly. I know neither purpose nor use of it, and it´s pretty annoing, as long as it shows on screen I can´t do anything, just wait for disappearing. Can somebody tell me what the heck it is, what purpose it has and, possibly, how to get rid off?

I had the same problem ages ago after I installed a video splitter.
I remember because I was experimenting with different splitters at the time.

I’m sorry but I cant remember what splitter caused the problem, but maybe if you have recently installed one, that could be the reason you are having this trouble.

May also try a System Restore back before the problem occurred. Everything that was installed between those two points will be uninstalled.

Presumably you installed it as part of a codec pack. Googling "AVI chunk viewer" shows you aren't alone in wondering where it came from and how to get rid of it.

Some people say it's a program called "AVI Splitter". (How... generic!) http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Avi_Splitter.htm tells (indirectly) how to get rid of it.

http://www.click-now.net/forums/lofiver ... /t832.html tells you how to disabel it with the codec tweak tool if you got it from K-Lite codec pack.

http://forum.videohelp.com/topic322398.html expresses outrage with having to deal with it.

Thanks DLL, I did necessary changes in codec pack, will see if it works.

Well, the changes I made seem not to be the right ones, namely when playing the .avi files I have no images I´ll tray to reinstall K-Lite codecs pack, and then will see.

Aww, hell! My GOM Player is in trouble, shows no images

After restart everything works good. Unfortunately, this annoying monster of AVI chunk viewer is back again.
