DivX video, now playing on a TV near you
As you probably know by now, we released the latest DivX(r) codec to a throng of screaming fans on July 15th. But instead of the usual run down of the codec's new features and advantages over competing technologies — of which there are many — I'd like to talk to you about something else today … the wanton destruction of the world's precious old growth forests. Just kidding, I'd like to talk to you about the DivX(r) Certified Program for consumer electronics.
If you've been shopping for a new DVD player recently, you probably noticed that all the best ones ;) have a snazzy logo on them proclaiming "DivX Certified." What does that logo mean, you ask? It means that in addition to playing disks in the retail standard MPEG-2/DVD format, that DivX Certified DVD players will also play burned video CDs in the Internet standard DivX format, letting you take your entire library of PC video content and enjoy it on your home theater system in big-screen, wall-rattling six speaker splendor. With DivX Certified High Definition DVD players poised to hit the market soon, you'll even be able to enjoy DivX video that takes advantage of the ultra-high resolution of an HDTV. And, because every DivX Certified device is rigorously tested and confidently guaranteed by the best nerds in the digital video industry (AKA the DivXNetworks engineers), you can rest assured that the DivX Certified device you purchase will offer industry leading video quality and performance. Any DVD player or other consumer electronics device bearing one of the DivX Certified logos — Handheld, Portable, Home Theater or High Definition — is guaranteed to handle DivX video content optimized for that category of devices perfectly.
Check out the full line of DivX Certified DVD players.
