|
 |
I noticed that most movie released are within 700-730Mb range. They are mostly XviD encoded.
Are there players for TVs that play XviD encoded content? Do you need to convert them in any way?
Most of the time I see DivX players, but not XviD...
Does PS3 play XviD?

Odd.. my friend has an AVI player and none of XviD videos work ...
I just place the video file on a CD by itself and the player says "Bad".
Are there any special instructions?

Maybe an old version of the codec? On a frieds dvd player every movie works just fine.

Look for a firmware update or codec update for the player it self then you should be able to play xvids.
I like bum.

Seems the expense in expensive players is paying for the time and work to make sure you cant play burnt media. Aphex FTW

Doesn't play x264 = shit media center 
But to answer the original poster's question, there isn't that much of a difference between Divx and Xvid, and scene releases are encoded with such players in mind. If the players says it supports Divx, it probably supports Xvid. If it doesn't a simple update should be enough (most of those players have usb connection on them just for that). |
