What's new in this version
**Features of divx 5.0**
* Compatibility with all versions of divx video content. divx 5.0 can play
every version of divx5 video ever created, from prior to 3.11 alpha to the
brand new divx Pro 5.0.
* AMD optimizations. Version 5.0 is fully optimized for AMD Athlon and Athlon
XP processors.
* Faster two-pass encoding. The second pass of two-pass encoding is now up to
30% faster than divx5 4.12. The second pass makes use of motion vector
information calculated by the first pass.
* Smaller file sizes. divx 5.0 is capable of producing equivalent visual
quality at up to 15-20% smaller file sizes, when compared to divx 4.12. File
size savings will vary depending upon the nature of the video content.
* MPEG-4 compatibility. divx 5.0 can decode MPEG-4 Simple Profile, MPEG-4
Advanced Simple Profile, and H.263 video (all levels). It is also able to
encode fully MPEG-4 Simple Profile compliant video (ISO/IEC 14496-2).
* divx(tm) MPEG-4 file format. Full support (encoding and decoding) for the brand
new MPEG-4 based file format that replaces the venerable AVI file format.
* Advanced support for existing encoding applications. All the new features of
divx 5.0 work in todayÕs existing content creation and encoding applications
without requiring new versions of the applications.
* Reusable encoding profiles. Version 5.0 allows you to save profiles of
encoding settings and reuse them over and over. You can also trade encoding
profiles with other users.
* Quick configuration CLI. divx 5.0 includes a command line interface for
advanced users.
* Patent-pending rate control algorithm. This new version of divx introduces a
new and improved rate control algorithm, improving visual quality.
* Improved encoding algorithms. Includes special encoding algorithms that are
specifically tuned to pans, fades, zooms, explosions, etc., improving quality
and increasing compression.
* Psychovisual modeling. Support for advanced psychovisual modeling during
encoding, a technique that takes into account knowledge about how the Human
Visual System (HVS) works to compress moving video images into much smaller
sizes without a loss of video quality.
* Universal architecture. The universal VfW/ACM/QT architecture of divx makes
it possible to playback exactly the same file on a variety of different
operating systems and applications.
* Scalable. Work on a wide range of video bitrates, from 28 Kbps to 9 Mbps,
depending upon your encoding needs.
* New divx Player 2.0 Alpha. A brand new divx Player application, complete
with MPEG-4 file format support and a spiffy new skin system, is ready for
your perusal.
