Users can play DivX videos on media players and devices. They can adjust settings in the Profile Editor. Here users tweak audio, bitrate, and encoding settings. They can also use preset encoding profiles for DivX certification. Saving custom settings in a DIP file lets users reuse them later. DIP files are plain text that any editor can open.
There are two .DIP file types. One is for printed circuit boards. The other stores DivX encoding profiles. DivX extends MPEG-4 compression for smaller, quality videos. The format works across platforms like Windows, Mac and Linux. DivX Player and codec are free downloads. DivX 6 brought AVI backwards compatibility. Encoding to DivX from DVDs needs third-party software. Earlier versions had mandatory spyware.
By default, Dr. DivX boosts inconsistent audio. This helps poorer quality tracks. Profiles apply preset variables to jobs. They produce fixed quality or file size. Some options don’t make all DivX devices. The unconstrained profiles enable advanced features. New DivX encoders work automatically in Dr. DivX. Encode settings can also be manually tweaked. Output respects DivX rules for hardware playback. Multiple audio tracks use different settings per track. MP3, MP3 Surround and AC-3 are supported.
Dr. DivX converts many formats to DivX. These include WMV, MPEG and MOV. The software runs on Windows. It is 4 MB. Old versions have bugs. The latest beta fixed cropping issues and enabled anamorphic encoding.
You must first rip DVDs to disk as VOBs. Dr. DivX doesn’t encode straight from DVDs. This requires unlocking and removing protection. Some countries prohibit this even for personal use.
