It's the easiest way to deliver media you care about directly from your PC and the Internet to your TV. With a DivX Connected device and a network connection, you can watch DivX videos, listen to music and browse photos saved on your PC and access Internet services without leaving the couch.
- Ridiculously fast fast forward and rewind
Skip forward through your movies at 30 second intervals and in reverse at 10 second intervals. Fast forward or reverse at speeds up to 300x. Most current digital media adaptors (DMAs) offer fast forward and rewind speeds at about 8x, DVD players at 32x and some DVRs at 300x, though only from an internal hard drive.

- Instant playback resume
Don't you hate how you have to fast forward forever to get to that point in the video where you just couldn't keep your eyes open anymore? DivX Connected has a playback resume feature, so you can start watching where you left off without missing a beat.

- DVD features, etc.
First you got a DivX Certified DVD player to play all your DivX videos. Then maybe you upgraded to a DivX Ultra Certified player when you started adding menus, subtitles, chapters and multiple audio tracks to your content. It's time to throw them out (and while you're at it, donate all those blank discs you'll no longer need). DivX Connected devices play multiple video formats, including all the DivX video you download, rent, buy or create yourself -- including DivX files with DVD-like features.

- Virtual chapter points
Virtual chapter points are another industry first as far as we know. Most Internet videos don't have the chapters we've all grown used to in DVDs, but DivX Connected changes that. To jump to a video's halfway point, just press 5 on the remote keypad. To go 80 percent into the file, press 8. For 30 percent, press 3 and so on…you get the idea. When you combine the use of virtual chapter points with the skip function, you will be amazed at how quickly you can jump to your favorite scenes (at least until we add a favorite scene marking method)

- HD resolution photos
No more waiting for locally rendered photos to paint line by line on your screen. DivX connected lets you scroll through full screen, HD resolution photos almost as fast as you can push the buttons on your remote. Navigate pages of thumbnails, play slideshows or view full screen photos one after the other without delay while you listen to and control music playing in the background.

- Streams HD video in DivX
Existing wireless standards are ok, if all you want is SD video. But the streaming capabilities of 802.11g simply can't deliver MPEG-2 HD video. That's where DivX Connected really kicks some ass compared to other DMA products. It allows DivX video in 720p HD to be streamed-smoothly and without stuttering-directly to your TV over your 802.11g wireless network.

| - Play that funky music
You like to rock out, but new research shows that you’re wrecking your eardrums by using those little ear buds with the volume cranked all the way up. Give your ears some breathing room. Point your server software to the music folder on your PC and play MP3s through your home theater sound system. View cover art as you would on the PC and play background music even while browsing photos and playing slideshows.
