About DivX Video Files

DivX

is a video file compression

technology, developed by DivXNetworks,
Inc. This product is an official DivX

Certified product.
You can play DATA CDs and DATA DVDs
that contain DivX video files.

DATA CDs and DATA DVDs that
the player can play

Playback of DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/
CD-RWs) and DATA DVDs (DVD-ROMs/
DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs/DVD-RWs/DVD-Rs)
on this player is subject to certain conditions:
– With DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that

contain DivX video files in addition to MP3
audio tracks or JPEG image files, the player
plays only the DivX video files.

However, this player only plays DATA CDs
whose logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/
Level 2 or Joliet, and DATA DVDs of
Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the instructions supplied with the
disc drives and the recording software (not
supplied) for details on the recording format.

About playback order of data on DATA CDs
or DATA DVDs

See “About playback order of albums, tracks,
and files” (page 53). Note that the playback
order may not be applicable, depending on
the software used for creating the DivX video
file, or if there are more than 200 albums and
600 DivX video files in each album.

Note

The player may not be able to play some DATA
CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write
format.

DivX video files that the player
can play

The player can play data that is recorded in
DivX format, and which has the extension
“.AVI,” or “.DIVX.” The player will not play
files with the extension “.AVI” or “.DIVX” if
they do not contain a DivX video.

Hint

For details about playable MP3 audio tracks or
JPEG image files on DATA CDs/DATA DVDs, see
“DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that the player can
play” (page 52).

Notes

• The player may not play a DivX video file when

the file has been combined from two or more
DivX video files.

• The player cannot play a DivX video file of size

more than 720 (width)

576 (height)/2 GB.

• Depending on the DivX video file, the picture

Playing DivX Video Files

You can play DivX video files on DATA CDs
(CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/CD-RWs) and DATA
DVDs (DVD-ROMs/DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs/
DVD-RWs/DVD-Rs).

Hints

• You can view the disc information while playing

a DivX video file (page 41).

• The player plays DivX video file either in PAL or

NTSC colour system according to the current
setting.

Notes

• If there are no DivX video files recorded on the

DATA CD/DATA DVD, a message appears to
indicate that the disc is not playable.

• Depending on the DivX video file, the picture

may pause or be unclear. In which case, it is
recommended that you create the file at a lower
bit rate. If the sound is still noisy, MP3 is the
recommended audio format. Note, however, this
player does not conform to WMA (Windows
Media Audio) format.
