Any DVD Recorder with Divx playback capability in the market

[SirReco]

Is there any DVD Recorder with Divx playback capability available in the market already?


My DVD Player died (burned) and I am planning to buy a DVD Player with Divx playback capabilites (Philips DVP 630), but i am also considering DVD recorder funcionality.

Is there such a device already available?

Regards,
Reco

Guess not.

Never heard of one.

Just a thought though , I f you had a Divx player and a DVD Recorder you could if you wanted record from the Divx player to a Blank disc in the DVD Recorder if you wanted. Creating a DVD Copy.

Everything in one box isn't always a good thing , it can limit what you can do with it.

That is actualy a good suggestion, I haven't though about that.

I've done the DivX player (DVP642 Philips) to Daytek DVR-P30 (really a Liteon 5001). It was just for testing purposes. It works out ok if you have a good quality DivX (or some Xvid).

Artec makes one and it's sold in the U.S. Look in the DVD recorder list.

Ive just purchased a Samsung DVD-R120. Its DVD-RAM/-RW/-R recorder with Divx (3.11, 4.x, 5.x and Pro) and Xvid playback, it also supports subtitle formats .smi, .srt, .psb, .txt and .ass. Above info from PAge 68 of the manual.
Hope it helps

The Panasonic E100 does play MPEG4 standard MPEG4. Apple Quicktime also uses standard MPEG4. But no have not seen any DVD Recorder to play DIVX or XVID

It's not a recorder, but I have a dvd player with mp4 (divx/xvid) playback and I like the fact that it also plays mpg on dvd 8)

Payed $76 Aust for it, and it's a great player.

Hi,

Is the Samsung DVDR122 the same as the 120?

I am very interested in this but two things are holding me back,

One - a region free hack. Is there one available as googling has got me no where? But I read that someone got another old one working.

Two - does it play xvid? I ask as everywhere its advertised, they say MPEG4 DivX compatiable or make no mention of it at all. But some say you can assume that it plays xvid too.

On a side note, should divx and xvid improve/update, how hard is it to get a firmware upgrade for a brand like Samsung as Chinese brands like Yamada seem more readily available.

The Cyberhome DVR1600 DVD Recorder with MU or ME in the model number plays DIVX. If it has ZU or ZE in the model number, it will not support DIVX.

(M = MediaTek)
(Z = Zoran Vaddis)
(U = United States)
(E = Europe)
