I would suspect that that is simply because most people don't actually
follow up to their posts. DivX can handle DivX files, but there's over 800
other codecs - suggesting DivX is typically simply side-stepping the
question, sadly. I would imagine that there' often good/specific data that
could be gleaned from these people - for example, if a site does use Codec
X, why not include a mention that they use Codec X and offer the user a link
to the download? =)

You are one of the few that reports not being able to play AVIs with
DivX - that is the usual solution around here.

Hi, I tried that player, doesn't work. It seems to be avis only that
are causing the problem. In fact all other video files play
wonderfully. Believe me, I am not the only one...I have heard a lot of
people are experiencing the same snafu. The loading and viewing of the
avis does not occur in the same manner as other video files. They are
usually out of sync and a bit jittery, too. I do have an older
computer, if that is the problem then why do they encode the videos in
avi form. Well, I thought I would put the problem before you and hope
you could render me a solution. Appreciate your input, psongman
