Generic DivX encoding

[gofgof]

Hi,
I've got problem reading the DivX I create with CloneDVDMobimle 1.2.0.1 on my new DVD player DVD-1080P9. I can read files that are converted with DivX 7.0 but not with CloneDVDMobile. Did anyone encounter the same problem? I also asked the same question directly to Samsung.
I can read the files on a Philips DVD portable but not on my Samsung.
Both DVD players are supposed to read DivX format.
Is the codec used by DivX 7.0 (the software) different from the one of CloneDVDmobile?
My Samsung player is able to "see" the files on the DVD. It shows all avi files, jpg files etc... but when I try to play the files (avi only, as it works fr jpg), the screen stays black (just a white "loading..." for a few seconds) and it looks like the disk was read is fastforward (I can't see any image on the screen but the time display on the DVD is running fast).

Thanks for your help.

This sounds very familiar. I have a Lacie Lacinema which also supposedly plays Divx videos, but won't play any that CloneDVDMobile creates. The latest word from their tech support was "Get yourself the current version of DivX, which is 7 I believe. Then set to the home theater profile. This should ensure the container is valid."

So how about it, SlySoft: tell us how to make a DivX 7 video.

Just to test, I bought DivX 7. Then I took a 6+ GB VOB of Star Wars, ran it through the DivX 7 converter, and surprise, surprise, it plays perfectly.

Here I've been abusing a poor Lacie tech support guy, when it's really CloneDVD mobile's problem.

Edit: Checking with Gspot, It looks like the CloneDVD mobile uses the DIVX codec, while DivX 7 uses something called DX50.

Ok I see. However, the burned DVD with my Generic files created by CloneDVDmobile are perfectly played on my Philips DVD portable player.
But thank you for the info.
Anyone else knows a patch or something to correct the problem???

There is no patch. CDM creates OpenDivx (Divx4 and later) files (this was the open source version before Divx made it proprietary with Divx5). Divx50 is used as a file tag by Divx7 to ensure compatibility with older players. All players that can play newer versions should be able to play older versions as well (the reverse does not apply).

Your problem is with the Samsung player not conforming to the Divx standard.

Unfortunately not, apparently.

I've just made another request to Samsung and wait for an answer.

[QUOTE = gofgof; 211702] Salut,
J'ai problème de lecture DivX, je crée avec CloneDVDMobimle 1.2.0.1 sur mon nouveau lecteur de DVD DVD-1080P9. Je peux lire des fichiers qui sont convertis avec DivX 7.0 mais pas avec CloneDVDMobile. Est-ce que quelqu'un rencontre le même problème? J'ai également posé la même question à Samsung.
Je peux lire les fichiers sur un Philips DVD portable mais pas sur mon Samsung.
Les deux lecteurs de DVD sont censés lire le format DivX.
Est-ce que le codec DivX utilisée par 7,0 (le logiciel) différent de celui de CloneDVDmobile?
Mon lecteur de Samsung est capable de "voir" les fichiers sur le DVD. Il montre tous les fichiers avi, jpg etc .. mais lorsque je tente de lire les fichiers (avi seulement, comme il fonctionne en jpg), l'écran reste noir (juste un blanc "Chargement ..." pendant quelques secondes) et il semble que le disque a été lue est fastforward (I ne peut pas voir une image sur l'écran, mais l'affichage de l'heure sur le DVD est en marche rapide).

Merci pour votre aide. [/ QUOTE]
