My animated 20 minute videos play very pixelated and are unwatchable. They resemble a dirty DVD. The sound if fine and they play fine on the PC. The funny thing is it only happens with some of my animated TV shows. Some the entire series and others just a few episodes. They are in xvid format. I haven’t come across a full length movie that does this.
Any thoughts?
possibly this … http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-TV-Live-Streaming/AVI-problems/m-p/745958#M31061

Well … it looks ok 
personally, if it’s only a few videos that have the problem … then i would re-encode them
which 99% of the time will fix them … and also your video is only 139MB which won’t take long to re-encode
you could try avidemux http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/ or handbrake https://handbrake.fr/
maybe with avidemux try the Video Copy and Audio Copy 1st … this will re-mux the file without re-encoding … which will take about 15 seconds
if that doesent work … then do a full re-encode which may take 15 - 20 mins

You are correct. I re-encoded just like it was suggested in the link you poseted and they are all working perfect now. Thanks for the help
