In addition to English, the DivX Player is now available in French,
German, and Japanese.
- Includes DivX 5.2 decoder
The DivX Player includes the latest DivX decoder enabling playback of
all DivX 3, 4 and 5 video. The DivX 5.2 decoder adds full support for
new features such as adaptive multiple consecutive bi-directionally
coded frames and MPEG-2 quantization.
- High Definition playback support
The DivX Player can now playback High Definition DivX files at 720p
(1280x720) and 1080p (1920x1080) resolutions. 720p playback requires a
minimum system of 2.4Ghz, 384 RAM, 64 MB VRAM or better. 1080p playback

- Enhanced MPEG-4 decoding support
The DivX Player can now play an even greater range of MPEG-4 videos
using the DivX 5.2 decoder.
- Blocking fix (Oops!)
We corrected a small issue that caused blocks to be displayed along
high-contrast edges in the picture, mainly affecting anime content.
Get ready to watch Sponge Bob as it was meant to be viewed once again!
- Improved playback from optical media
The DivX Player will now play DivX files stored on CDs and DVDs smoothly
and with reduced drive activity.
- Seek speed control
Clicking the Fast Forward and Rewind contorls multiple times changes the
Fast Forward and Rewind rate.

The DivX Player can now check for updates automatically when you are
connected to the Internet using the DivX update application. You will be
prompted when new updates are available and have the option of installing
those updates. You can also search for updates to your DivX software by
using the update check link on your start menu.
