DivX (Digital internet video express)
DivX is a video fi le format developed by Microsoft and is
based on MPEG4 compression technology to provide
audio and video data over the Internet in real-time.
MPEG4 is used for video encoding and MP3 for audio
encoding so that the users can watch a movie at near
video and audio.
