If all else fails, you can try to create a DVD-Video disc from the videos using programs like AVS2DVD, DVD Flick, or FAVC (or for the shareware/commercial route, ConvertX2DVD).

Page 41 of the .pdf manual has some information that may be useful. It says:

Only the version of your home theater system sold in Russia can play DivX files.
The maximum resolution allowed is 720x576.
The maximum file size allowed is 2GB.
Files with more than 3 hours of video may not play.
Files made by joining two or more DivX video files may not play.
Some DivX files may play with poor video and audio quality.
