DivX Codecs

[titus12]

I downloaded DivX 6.5 Player with its codecs. Will Media Player 11 play
DivX movies? When I open 'Options' and look under files in Media Player,
the DivX codecs are not there.

Thankyou;
David

Will Media Player 11 play

DivX movies?

Yes, if the proper codecs are installed and working.

When I open 'Options' and look under files in Media Player,
the DivX codecs are not there.

Because codecs are not listed there.

To see the Installed Codecs...
