About DIVX Files

A .divx file is a video file encoded with the DivX codec, a format designed to provide high-quality video while maintaining relatively small file sizes. DivX-encoded movies typically use MPEG-4 Part 2 compression and can include multiple audio tracks, subtitles, and chapter points. The format became popular in the early 2000s for distributing movies and TV shows over the Internet because it offered better compression than many alternatives while retaining good visual quality.

While DivX saw widespread use during the early days of digital video sharing, it is now less common as more efficient codecs like H.264 and H.265 have become the standard. However, you may still encounter .divx files when playing older video downloads, archived movies, or media from DivX-certified DVD players. Modern media players like VLC, as well as the official DivX Player, can open and play these files without requiring conversion.
