DivX — MPEG-4 ASP Video Codec

DivX is a video codec based on MPEG-4 Part 2 (MPEG-4 Advanced Simple Profile) developed by DivX, Inc. It became enormously popular in the early 2000s as the dominant codec for compressing DVD-quality video into files small enough to share over the internet, typically stored in AVI containers.

DivX in the Early Internet Video Era

DivX's ability to compress a full DVD movie to approximately 700 MB (fitting on a single CD-R) made it the standard for digital video distribution before streaming platforms existed. The DivX name became synonymous with internet video during this period. Modern DivX versions support H.264 and HEVC in MPEG-4 and MKV containers.

Converting DivX Files with LetsConvert

LetsConvert converts DivX AVI files to MP4, MKV, MOV, WebM, and other formats using FFmpeg. DivX (MPEG-4 ASP) video is transcoded to H.264 for MP4 output. The DivX audio track (typically MP3 or AC-3) is preserved or transcoded as required by the target format.

Why Convert from DivX?

DivX/MPEG-4 ASP is less efficient than modern codecs (H.264, H.265) and is not natively supported on many modern devices. Converting to H.264 MP4 gives better compatibility and often better quality at smaller file sizes.

Common DivX Conversion Targets

DivX → MP4: Transcode to H.264 for universal compatibility.
DivX → MKV: Convert to MKV, optionally retaining the DivX codec for lossless remux.
DivX → AVI: Keep the AVI container but re-encode to H.264 for better compression.

Frequently Asked Questions: DivX Format

Is DivX the same as AVI?

No. AVI is a container; DivX is a codec. DivX videos are typically stored in AVI containers, but an AVI file can contain many different codecs. The DivX codec (MPEG-4 ASP) is what makes a DivX video.

Can I convert DivX to MP4 without losing quality?

Converting DivX to MP4 requires transcoding (re-encoding), which results in some generation loss. Use a high CRF value (low quality loss) setting for best results.
