With DivX support, you are able to enjoy DivX 

encoded videos in the comfort of your living room. 

The DivX media format is an MPEG4-based video 

compression technology that enables you to save 

large files like movies, trailers and music videos on 

media like CD-R/RW, and DVD recordable discs. 

DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great 

features like integrated subtitles, multiple audio 

languages, multiple tracks and menus into one 

convenient file format.

Dolby Digital and Pro Logic II

for an external decoder by processing all six channels 

of audio information to provide a surround sound 

experience and an astoundingly natural sense of 

ambience and dynamic realism. Dolby Pro Logic II 

provides five channels of surround processing from 

any stereo source.
