I won't claim to be a video expert but I know a little bit. Divx and xvid are codecs usuall "wrapped" in an avi file. See the following links and if you have information to the contrary post it.

The neuston software has no preferences that can be adjusted so I would assume it looks for video's in the users movies folder but for some reason it cannot see mine. The neuston software does see my iphoto library, sees the picture names, but they just appear blank. I can't see how this can be user error.
You say I'm feeding the eyehome files it can't decode and then you immediately state that you are feeding the exact same file types to it. That doesn't make alot of sense. In addition to that the faq you reference says the eyehome CAN playback those files. Playback isn't my problem anyway, just fast forwarding.
"What movie formats can EyeHome display?
EyeHome can play the following movie files: MPEG-1 (.mpg), MPEG-2 (including unencrypted .vob), MPEG-4 (.mp4), 3IVX and XVID (including DIV3 and DX50 codecs)."
I always appreciate your help rusty but ease up a bit on the bashing.
