DivX
DivX is type of video codec developed by DivX, Inc. that uses MPEG-4 Part 2 compression to encode videos. Much like XviD, which was created as a direct competitor to the DivX codec, DivX is commonly used for compressing large videos into much smaller videos with minimal loss in quality. This makes it perfect for use in sharing of videos, especially since a wide range of newer players are "DivX Certified", allowing them to play DivX encoded videos. Unlike its direct competitor XviD, DivX is neither free nor open source, and is only available for certain platforms.
