I recall having problems with some of the commercial DV and JPEG codecs on Windows.  A lot of these are legacy VfW codecs and not DirectShow filters and they seem to be written to work only in Premier or some other editing app.  The best solution I found was installing FFDShow which includes a large set of codecs that are pretty stable and perform well.

Yeah sorry, it was kinda stupid of me to ask that question to the list
rather than to google.

I removed it and it work. It wasn't easy though; I tried to uninstall
it politely in the "video codecs" panel of Windows' Device Manager...
but it just wouldn't disappear. So I deleted it manually, and even if
according to Windows it is still in the codecs list, GEM now works
fine.

At first I thought the file was magically regenerating itself, since
after deleting it it and searching it would still be found... but then
I realized it was found in the Trash.


Thanks
