DivX files
DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec
which is based on the new MPEG-4 compression standard
for video.The correct playback of DivX files on this player
depends on the preparation and production of the audio
and video files, the codec and type of recording equipment
used and on your computer’s parameters. It may therefore
happen that you cannot play a DivX file or that part or all
of it is defective. DivX disc compatibility with this player is
limited as follows:
• The maximum resolution of the DivX file is below
720x576
(W x H) pixels.
• DivX filenames should not exceed 56 characters.
• If the video and audio structure of the recorded file is
not interleaved, either video or audio is outputted.
• If the file is recorded with GMC, the unit supports only
1-point GMC. GMC is the acronym for Global Motion
Compensation. It is an encoding tool specified in the
MPEG4 standard. Some MPEG4 encoders, like DivX or
XviD, have this option.There are different levels of GMC
encoding, usually called 1-point, 2-point, or 3-point GMC.
Note on DivX files
Before making use of DivX files, please make sure
that you have legally purchased or rented the
content. Pirate copying is illegal and may result in
sanctions. Private copies of your own material for
your own use may be legal in some countries. Make
sure you are aware of applicable laws.
DVD copy protection
In accordance with the DVD standard, your TV/DVD
is equipped with a Copy Protection Device, which
can be switched on and off by the DVD disc itself, in
order to ensure that any recording of the relevant
DVD disc onto a videotape is of very poor picture
quality, if not impossible.
