About the DivX file

What is DivX?

DivX is a popular media technology created by DivX, Inc. DivX media files contain highly compressed video with high visual quality that maintains a relatively small file size. DivX files can also include advanced media features like menus, subtitles, and alternate audio tracks. Many DivX media files are available for download online, and you can create your own using your personal content and easy-to-use tools from DivX.com.

Precautions on the DivX file

This system can play DivX version 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x files. DivX Ultra is not supported.

Files other than DivX format cannot be played. In addition, some files may not be played because of the encoding format. When a file cannot be played, the next file is played instead.

DivX VOD (Video-on Demand files) that have authorization data can also be played. These files must be authorized on your PC beforehand using the DivX Registration Code displayed on the System tab screen under the General Setttings screen (see page 62).

Set the Frame Size to 640 x 480 or 320 x 240 pixels.

Set the Frame Rate to 30 or 15 fps.

Add a file extension “.AVI”, “.avi”, “.DIVX”, or “divx” using single byte characters.

Precautions when preparing a disc

Note:

The limitations on preparing a disc are same as those in the MP3/WMA/AAC modes. See “Precautions when preparing a disc” (page 37).

Selecting the DivX mode

1.Set a disc which the DivX files are recorded to the DVD player.

The system will automatically read the disc data, change to the DVD mode (DivX mode), and start playback after a while.

See also “Setting/Ejecting a Disc” (page 20).

WARNING

Some movie files may be recorded at a higher volume level than desired. Increase the volume gradually from the minimal setting after the movie has started.

For your safety, the driver should not watch the movie or operate the controls while driving. Please note that watching and operating the movie while driving are prohibited by law in some countries.

Note:

For your safety, this system has a safety function which turns off the picture when the car is moving, so only the audio can be heard. The picture can only be watched when the car is stopped and the parking brake is applied.

If “AUDIO ONLY” appears on the screen just after turning on the ACC power of the car, release the parking brake while confirming safety, and then engage the parking brake again.

You can store DivX files and the MP3/WMA/AAC files together in a disc or folder. In such a case, you can select whether the disc is regarded as a DivX disc or as an MP3/WMA/AAC disc. See “Setting the Playform of discs recorded with audio files” (page 40).

When a disc is already set

1.Press the [SRC] button to display the Source screen.

2.Touch the [DVD] key to select the DivX mode. The system changes to the DVD mode (DivX mode), and starts playback from the previous position.
