Divx web player keeps crashing all browsers; IE, Firefox, Google Chrome.

The Divx web player stopped working for me a while back. I run Microsoft XP HE SP3 on a Toshiba Satellite M55-S139 1.87 GB RAM 1.60 GHz Proc.
I've tried installing and uninstalling the browsers. I've tried updating/downgrading versions of divx. I've even done some registry edits a while back that seemed to work once I restarted the computer and tried it once but then after a moment of playing it crashed again.
Has anyone had this ongoing issue with divx web player like I have? The regular divx player and vlc can play divx but when I attempt to stream divx formated files from any site I get a browser crashing occurance every time for every browser. It always appears to be a certain dll issue in the send error report; most of the time to msvcr80.dll.
Let me know any additional info you may need to solve this.

I have the same issue since updating to Lion / Safari 5.1!
The plugin worked fine before in 32-bit Mode.
There's nothing on the internet on this issue altough it seems this problem occurs on any Lion machine. I have encountered the same problem on a new MacBookAir that came with Lion preinstalled. So I'm guessing it has nothing to do with updating from Snow Leopard to Lion.
Any help greatly appreciated!!!

Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working ~ DivX Web Player plugin crashed

Hi Everyone,
Probably I should begin by saying anything computer-related is like walking blindfold in a pitch dark room. Seriously "tech-impaired" here (i'd go to someone who knows but tight budgets are a pain too... so if anyone here could help fix this I'd be forever thankful.
The first part of the title line is what appears to me in a little message window. YouTube and Hulu work OK, but there's this site "Icefilms (dot) info" -the one that I mostly use- that's the one with the problem.
It was all working just fine until last Monday night (June 20/2011) and it's not just with Firefox that I have this problem, cause when i tried to use Google Chrome it was the same thing, which makes me think it's not an Internet browser problem, I tried changing Firefox (5) to an older version, but instead of just the video widow, the whole thing crashes.

Google Earth Plugin
GEPlugin Outdated Version Update
Plugin Icon
RealPlayer Version Plugin
6.0.12.69 Outdated Version
Still saying I need updates but when I update it says I have current versions already.
Also still keep getting plugin container for firefox has stopped working. But I'm not see a problem with anything.

I am leaving firefox for Mac Version 1602 as it freezes and crashes all the time, for Google Chrome which does not. I do this with regret

I give up. I was ok with version 16.0 and firefox 16.02 was automatically downloaded to y Mac Book Pro Version 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. I would like to go back to Firefox 15.0. How can I do this? If this cannot be done, I will uninstall Firefox 16.02 and only use the Chrome and Safari Browsers. I have been using Firefox for more than 10 years and I leave Firefox with great regret. You simply cannot compete with Google Chrome.

Have you tried to Reset Firefox? that will likely fix many of your problems with Firefox. [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

DivX Web Player is no longer working.

DivX Plus Web Player HTML 5 [video] is incompatible with Firefox 4.0b8. <=(disable reason)
So i can no longer stream my fav movies. Also, when i click play, sometimes my trafic bar goes crazy like it's downloading from the source, but i have no image or sound just like the divx web player is crashed.
So please can you help me? The web player worked on FF 3 and on Opera...
Also, Bitdefender Antiphishing Toolbar, Cooliris and some Microsoft Framework stuff are incompatible with Firefox 4.

This problem must be huge...
IF you just did the ver 4 upgrade a little while ago, stop and use the windows restore utility to restore your computer to a restore point before the ver 4 upgrade.... You will not lose data, and perhaps reverse setting changes that the ver 4 upgrade does that can't be undone... No one has recommended this yet!!

Flash Player Crashes All Browsers

I am uning Dell Inspiron 1545 with windows 7. Yesterday everything was fine, but today when I go to any site or game that uses Flash, my browsers become unresponsive and crash. I have tried Google Chrome(13.0.782.220) and IE. In google chrome i get the message that flash player has crashed and then I have to restart my laptop to fix it. I have tried updating flash(I am using the current version), I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling flash, virus and maleware scans, clearing caches and nothing has helped.

I'm sorry this has happened to you. Would you mind opening a new bug on this issue over at bugbase.adobe.com? Here's a post that describes the information we'll need and instructions for generating a crash log:
How to report a crash with Flash Player
I'd also recommend installing the Flash Player 11 rc release for Internet Explorer and see if that helps resolve the problem.

Old version of Shockwave Player keeps crashing - installing new version hangs

I had reproducible crashes of FlashPlayer (in all my browsers (IE, FF, Google Chrome and Safari) and on misc. web pages).
I then decided to install the latest version 11.5. Clicking on Install hangs the browser.
Is there a download version of the installer?
The reason I am asking this: I had exactly the same issue with flash player. The web-based installer would always hang, the downloadable installer finally worked. But, alas, Adobe is always hiding the downloadabe installers... :-( )

My flash player keeps crashing on a lot of sites i go to

my flash player keeps crashing on a lot of sites i go to especially ebay and it says adobe flash player crashed click here to reload. this never happened on my xp os but i recently installed win 7 64 bit on my pc but i also did a clean install with a brand new hd so how can i prevent this from happening

Download the following files by right clicking the links and selecting "Save target as" (IE) or "Save Link as"(Firefox).
Flash Player Uninstaller
Shockwave Player Uninstaller
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Shockwave Player 12 FULL Installer
Save the files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT run anything yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything, go to the Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLERS to remove all instances of Flash Player and Shockwave.
Run the Shockwave Installer first, then visit http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFull&P2_Plat form=Win32&P3_Browser_Version=MSIE with Internet Explorer, (there isn't a direct download link - sorry) and install the Shockwave FULL installer for IE.
Next, run the Flash Player ActiveX installer, and then the Flash Player (other browsers) Installer.
Lastly, see:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer to make 100% sure that Flash Player is enabled and NOT being blocked by ActiveX controls.

Why does the shockwave player keep crashing when I play farmville 2 on both the facebook and zynga websites?

I play farmville 2 on both the zynga and facebook websites. My shockwave player keeps crashing and is a very slow to load the game. This happens on all of the browsers I have used. Google chrome works better than some, firefox, icedragon and IE all are very slow to load the game and this take a lot of enjoyment out of the actual game play. Please help figure this out. I even keep clearing the cache and history, this does not help out much either.

Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

DivX Web Player will not install in Chrome

Hey,
     I hope this is the correct forum, if not, if someone would redirect me I would appreciate it.
I can't get gifs to play in chrome. They work fine in Safari and firefox. I keep getting this error message: "DivX Web Player is required to display some elements on this page."
I have downloaded and installed DivX repeatedly, rebooted repeatedly, still get same problem.
Problem started after my latest OS upgrade.
I'm running:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.5 GHz
OS X Yosemite

I apologize for jamming everthing out here in the middle, but when I pasted my info from TextEdit, it inexplicably pushed most of it
off the page to the left and the only way to fix it was by centering the text. Another weird thing this Mac does.

If a site offering a movie or other media free that is otherwise a "pay-for-it" product and they gave you the link to download a player, they likely gave you a non-working version of DIxV along with some malware/adware that will nton make your Mac happy.
The first thing to try is getting DivX directly from their official web site:
http://www.divx.com
If that gets the movie playing, you'll need to check for malware the other download may have injected. The easiest way is with this tool developed by one of our most valued contributors here:

It will politely remove most serious adware/malware that is commonly injected from "free" media sites.

DivX Web Player and Safari

Hello,
I've been throug so many forums trying to solve this problem, but nothing seemed to work. So I hope someone can solve it here.
The problem: *DivX movies won't load in Safari.*
Steps i've taken so far:
Using Safari 4.0.5, running in 32-bit mode:
1) Deleted DivX-player and safari plug-in using the DivX Uninstaller.
2) Deleted Shockwave Flash Player using Flahs Player uninstaller (http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash)
3) Installed RealPlayer SP (http://uk.real.com/realplayer/mac/)
4) Installed Flip4Mac WMV player (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx)
5) Installed Perian (http://perian.org/)
6) Installed Shockwave Flash Player (http://get.adobe.com/nl/flashplayer/)
7) Deleted all files relating to DivX in Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime, since Perian already has them.
8) Enabled plugins in Safari preferences
9) Repaired permissions
10) Restarted my computer
According to a topic I found (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1299922&tstart=0), this would do. Perian would play all embedded DivX movies. However, it didn't. Safari told me the plugin could not be found. I don't even know Perian did anything. Should there be any sign of Perian when it's working? Or is it invisible?
So I continued trying:
11) Installed DivX 7 (containing the DivX Web plugin) (http://www.divx.com)
12) Relaunched Safari
According to other users who responded in the thread i mentioned above, this could solve the problem. With me, it didn't. Now Safari does find the plugin, but it won't load the video. It seems the video is buffering, but at 99% it stops. When I try again, it stops at 98%. And so on ... Once, I got only sound and no video ... very strange.
So I continued:
13) I deleted DivX 7 using the DivX uninstaller.
14) I installed an older version of the DivX Web Plugin
Did not work. Safari didn't find the plugin.
Then I noticed Safari 5 was released, so I hoped the problem would not occur in Safari 5, but it did.
However, some things have changed. In the mean time i've re-installed the DivX 7 Web Plugin and deleted all files related to DivX in Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime (I assume Perian still has them and works with Safari 5 as well?)
When I now try to play a DivX video in Safari, one time it won't buffer. 0% is where it stops. However, after a few minutes I now get this alert from DivX Plus Web Player: "The file you are trying to play has failed to finish downloading and can no longer play.". The other time it does buffer, but like before it stops at 99%, 98%, ... DivX Plus Web Player gives the same message. In both cases the video does seem to load. The grey bar turns darker. But when I try to play it, it doesn't do anything.
Funny though, while I'm typing, I'm once again trying to watch a DivX video. It buffered till 99%, while the grey bar was loading. Then the error message came. The grey bar was still loading though. When it was finished, I scrolled through it and now I hear only sound of the video, no image. Weird ...
Many people say the DivX plugin works fine in Mozilla Firefox, but I get the same problem. So I guess the problem must be linked to the plugin?
Anyway, I hope someone can help me with this. It's really frustrating not to be able to view some videos coded in DivX online.
Besides, I also have problems with some radio streams in Safari. ASX streams won't load ... Someone said to run Safari with Rosetta, but that didn't help. Does anyone know a solution for this one too?
Thanks in advance!
Grts,
Philippe
PS: I hope my English wasn't too bad for you to understand.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. After some more experimenting, i finally got it to work ... However, not every embedded DivX movie will play.
I just deleted another codec in the Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime folder. (One of the codecs mentioned on http://perian.org/#support was still in the folder). Before I had only deleted the files whose name has "DivX" in it.
I did NOT install the DivX Web Player plugin.
Now some DivX videos play, some don't... So maybe I should re-install the DivX Web Plugin? But the Web Plugin never worked for me ... If I re-install it, won't I go back to where I started?

Hey! My flash player keeps crashing whenever I open any kind of website with any flash contend.

Hey! My flash player keeps crashing whenever I open any kind of website with any flash contend. Videos won't load, moving advertisements, all that stuff. Its also not just Firefox, videos don't work in IE or Chrome. I'm completely updated on all the plugins as well. Thanks for any help you may have!

IE uses a different version of Flash (ActiveX version) than Firefox and Chrome use (the Plugin version). You might want to try the Adobe Flash forums for help with those Flash problems. <br />

DivX Web Player not appearing in Safari 5.1

Hey there!
Just a few days back I decided to go back to Safari (version 5.1, build 7534.48.3). However, the DivX Pro Web Player (version 2.1.2.264) refuses to show up. No matter the conditions.
I have tried disabling all of my Safari extensions. I have uninstalled Adblock as recommended by someone around the forums. I do have the latest version of Perian (1.2.3) installed. I have tried temporarily moving a few QuickTime components as recommended by Perian (http://perian.org/#support). I have tried disabling the DivX Plus Web Player HTML 5 <video> 2.1.2.126 alone and re-enabling it. I have tried several versions of the DivX Web Player (1.4, 6 and the latest) I have tried everything mentioned above in both 32bit and 64bit mode. I have restarted my computer a bunch of times between the changes, just in case it would make a difference.
It works perfectly fine within Mozilla Firefox (version 5.0.1) and Google Chrome (version 13.0.782.107 beta).

Google Chrome (13.0.782.107 beta)
DivX Web Player (2.1.2.264)
DivX Safari Extension (2.1.2.126)
Perian (1.2.3)
Any help whatsoever is highly appreciated. I realise this may not be a direct issue of Safari, but could rather be an issue of the DivX Web Player, thus me posting this both here and through a ticket to the DivX support.
Thank you very much,
Chris.

I have the same issue since updating to Lion / Safari 5.1!
The plugin worked fine before in 32-bit Mode.
There's nothing on the internet on this issue altough it seems this problem occurs on any Lion machine. I have encountered the same problem on a new MacBookAir that came with Lion preinstalled. So I'm guessing it has nothing to do with updating from Snow Leopard to Lion.
Any help greatly appreciated!!!

My iphone 5 keeps crashing all the time and has a delay of about 3 seconds when doing anything on it i did a factory restore on it but it didnt fix the problem

Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

Divx web player keeps crashing all browsers; IE, Firefox, Google Chrome.
