To play DivX files

Your player is an Officially Certified DivX™ device. It can play DivX®5, DivX®4, DivX®3 and DivX®VOD files according to the DivX Certified™ technical specifications.

The correct playing of DivX in your player, depends on the preparation and production of the audio and video files, the codecs used, the type of recording equipment employed and the parameters of your computer. It is therefore possible that you cannot play a DivX file or that part or all of it is defective. It can also sometimes happen that you can play the images (video) but not the sound (audio). Your recorder can only recognize and read DivX files if their titles do not contain more than 12 characters.

Note:To guarantee playback of DivX files the audio must be mp3 format. DivX Certified devices can play back any interleaved mp3 audio at any bitrate, both CBR and VBR. The audio must be sampled at standard frequencies, such as 32 khz, 44.1khz, and 48khz, and must conform to the AVI file specification. Apart from mp3, the audio formats recognised by your player are MPEG layer 1/2, AC3, DTS, PCM. The most common is mp3. Formats such as AAC and Ogg Vorbis are not supported by this player.
