What kinds of movie files can you play on a DVD player that is DIVX certified?
I just bought a Philips DVP5960 upconverting DVD player and I tried to play some .AVI files with it but nothing happened. The manual says it will play .WMA files. Is it easy to convert from .AVI to .WMA? Help! Any information on DIVX and DVD players will be helpful! Thanks!
Answer:
AVI is for audio and video, as you already know it but you're getting confused with wmA (AUDIO) and wmV (VIDEO).
WMA is just like mp3 promoted by microsoft for compressed audio format.
Now to your problem to watch DIVX movies on DVD player. Your player muct be DIVX compatible to play divx and phillips does make those. You need to check the manual or online for compatibility.
If it's not compatible, dont worry. Let me give you the simplest possible solution. You need to convert DIVX movies into DVD Video format and burn it in VR mode - sounds complex don worry - read on.
Windows XP media center can burn DVDs for you but it does not come with DIVX codecs to read divx movies required for conversion. Download FREE codecs from divx.com, start windows media center, goto video, add dovx video, burn. Inset into you phillips player and ENJOY!!!
Last piece of advice: make sure you check the compatibility of DVDR format of your phillips DVD player. There are still some boxes which support only one format DVD+R or DVD-R and use the same as required by your DVD player.
Hope this helps. A DivX certified DVD player can play video encoded using DivX. However, your DVD player might only play .WMV encoded with DivX and not support other video formats... that might be it
