DIVX-DVD Player???
Does anyone have a DVD player that supports DIVX playback? And if so, how is the quality, are you satisfied with its DIVX ability? Also, is it just a regular one, or an UP CONVERTING HD player?
Also, when you burn the DIVX movie to CD, is there something SPECIFIC you have to name it or something, or a way you need to burn it? I already have a TON of DIVX burnt CD's, but they are all just "data burn" cd's, and all the files have the extension of "AVI." So is that good enough? Would the player automatically recognize it? Or does the extension have to be something like ".divx"
Thnx,
T.

DIVX players can just play AVIs saved as data. You can get 3-4 movies on one CD.
I know Toys R Us and Home Depot just recently had some on sale for around $20-$30 (CAN).
I didn't by an upconverting one, but I hear they are pretty good. Imo not woth the money yet.
I bought a decent DVD player for $70, and I am happy with it.
You can burn movies in a few minutes, rather than having to convert and burn one movie.

quality would depend on the divx file and how it was ripped, not just the player

Okay thanks guys, I might invest the money and try it out, I've seen name brand up-converting DVD/divx players for about 50-60 bux.

I got an el-cheapo Daytek DV5601 from Future Shop (around $60can)
It plays everything I can throw at it... I just burn a data dvd with anything I want on it and it plays it. DiVX movies, MPG or MPEG movies, MP3's, it even slideshows JPG pictures.
I'm happy with it... I got one for my kids room too so he can download and watch movies all he wants.

Use a USB pendrive instead of wasting CD's or DVD's to watch downloaded DiVX movies... wow!

I got something similar Stone
I run an old computer with a hauppage PVR150 card and BeyondTV as a PVR. Got it hooked up to my Viewsat with BEV and Dish wide open.
It's on my home LAN so I can download movies to it and watch, or use it as PVR to record or "pause" live TV (sort of like a home built tivo).
I like my toys
