i was trying out 6.0 and all my source clips would show up in the viewer window upside down. and when i went to watch them thru winamp and wmp they were upside down too.

ive tried reconfiguring my codecs but no luck. did i break it? im good at that stuff.

What codec for those source clips?

there were a few the files show this as the codec info

DivX® 6.1.1 Codec (1 Logical CPU)

Windows Media Video 9 (not exactly sure about this one)

flac (at least that what it looks to be)

MainConcept MPEG-2

those were the ones i could find atleast

FLAC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC) is an audio codec and shouldn't have an effect on your video playback. I'd be surprised if this is the culprit.

You could almost rule out Windows Media Video 9 as it is from Microsoft and should be thoroughly tested by their engineers, but there is always the chance.

More likely, it may be a result of some codec pack you downloaded and installed. Possibly from a conflict between an old ffdshow and DivX and/or XviD. These reports are unconfirmed.

Some possibly helpful links:

I'd uninstall any codec pack I can find and then re-install the stuff you really need. I suggest the latest CCCP (link in my signature), XviD (for encoding AMVs - optional), then any other codec you find you really need (FLAC, OGG, etc.), although most can be decoded by ffdshow.

You could also try updating your video drivers.
