DivX® video playback on the DV-SP503E (not North American model)

About DivX

DivX is a compressed digital video format created by the DivX® video codec from DivXNetworks, Inc. This player can play DivX video files burned on CD-R/RW/ ROM discs. Keeping the same terminology as DVD- Video, individual DivX video files are called “Titles.” When naming files/titles on a CD-R/RW disc prior to burning, keep in mind that by default they will be played in alphabetical order.

Playing DivX video

If a disc contains only DivX video files, you can start playback right away. The table below shows all the basic playback controls.

If a disc contains a mixture of DivX video and other media file types (MP3, for example), first select whether to play the DivX video files (DivX) or the other media file types (MP3/WMA/JPEG) from the on-screen dis- play.

Note:

The player may take some time to find a title on a disc when you start playback, etc. This is normal.
