About DivX

DivX is a compressed digital video format

created by the DivX® video codec from DivX, 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.
