Default Audio Codec OSD when playing .AVI

I must have done something that caused MP to display green Audio Codec Info when playing .AVI -files!?
Anyone got the answer to how I can get rid of it again, I am getting crazy here!?

It looks like this:


Thanx in advance,

Thanks for your reply (and the solution)!

I was looking for the config-tool for ffdshow but simply did not have that on my PC.
Had been using a codecpack, so I installed ffdshow-package and then all was fine!

Before I used to be able to select different video decoders but for some reason the installation of ffdshow grayed out these fields... video seems a bit jerky as well (only shows after some time). I will investigate further in the next day or two.

The initial problem is resolved however so thanks again!

Strange, because most codec packs include FFDShow anyway.

CCCP is the most minimalistic pack that i know of, and the settings are easy to configure, for the power user would recommend Vista codec pack, but knowledge of what your doing is required.
