DivX

DivX™ is a patent-pending MPEG-4 digital video technology created by DivXNetwor ks, Inc. Videos encoded with DivX technology are among the highest quality digital videos available anywhere (and with a relatively small file size to boot).

DivX is also a global phenomenon. Over 30 million people across the world have downloaded and used DivX technology since its launch, and hundreds of thousands of DivX videos are watched on the Internet every day. DivX is quickly becoming the format of choice for digital video professionals and amateurs who want to distribute their videos with premium visual quality at small file sizes, earning DivX the popular moniker "The MP3 of Video."

In addition, DivX is the most widely distributed MPEG-4 compatible technology available today. DivX technology is compatible with the MPEG-4 video compression standard, allowing it to compress MPEG-2 video down to about one eighth of its original size. DivX is able to create fully compliant MPEG-4 bitstreams.

DivXNetworks, Inc., the company behind the technology. Originally started as Project Mayo, DivXNetworks has grown into a vibrant group of international technologists based in San Diego, California, USA. DivXNetworks also includes the members of the DivX Advanced Research Centre (DARC), the top-notch video engineers who develop the DivX™ codec and continually drive the state of the art in video compression.

The next few years will be exciting as the next wave of digital entertainment and video-on-demand rolls out to a wider and wider audience. And DivX™--the technology, the phenomenon, the community, and the company--will be on the cutting edge and leading the way.
