With DivX® video technology, you can compress a VHS tape down to one-hundredth of its original size or a DVD to one-tenth of its size. DivX video compression is so efficient you can fit the entire contents of a DVD on a regular data CD with no perceivable loss in quality. Now you can take any digital video content, from home movies to your personal DVD collection1 and save it on CDs to share with friends or store it on your computer's hard drive without spending huge amounts on extra storage.

Traditionally, video on the Internet was grainy, low resolution and postage stamp-sized. Today all that is changing. Since the introduction of DivX® video technology five years ago, video content providers finally have a real solution to deliver their creations to the world without sacrificing visual quality or shelling out major cash for extra bandwidth. Millions of people worldwide are already using their standard high speed connections to download feature-length movies from the Internet in less than the time it takes to watch them. And DivX video technology powers a secure video-on-demand system that already boasts over 15,000 video titles from our content partners.

Not only has DivX® video technology enabled the fast and secure delivery of highly compressed, DVD-quality video, it is also taking video from the computer monitor to the living room TV. With the full range of DivX® Certified devices flooding the market this year, you can now easily take that DivX movie created on your computer, pop it into your DivX Certified DVD player and enjoy it on your big screen TV. The DivX codec even lets you make movies specifically for your favorite device, be it Portable (your personal video player for when you travel), High Definition (your fancy new HDTV), Handheld (your video-capable PDA, like Compaq's PocketPC) or Home Theater (your DivX Certified DVD player).
