kiss dvd plays divx.

[4play]

does it play divx3.11.
i dont think they are aloud to use the codec for that because it was a hack of the m$ codecs.

Hey 4play...I forgot where I read about it...I think it was in hardware world, but apparently the new versions of the Kiss Player will play DIvx 3.1 films. Pretty nifty B)

Why on earth would you want to compress a movie that has already been compressed? (that's what DIVX is, a compression scheme, like XVID)

What you need to do is convert the divx movie to a VCD(or SVCD).

why convert to s, vcd when with a kissplayer play it in the format that i downloading it in. isnt that the point of having a divx player?

Just change the FourCC code of a DivX 3.11 encode movie to that of a FourCC code that is supported by your player.

No need to re-encode the video.

The K-Lite Codec Pack has a FourCC code changer program.


There is a firmware upgrade for the KiSS player, so that it supports DivX 3.11

just out of interest, what's a fourCC code?
