DivX Web Player lets you watch DivX® videos right in your web browser. And if you have some of your own videos you’d like to share on your website, blog or social networking profile, DivX Web Player is all you need.

If you can copy and paste, you have enough know-how to stream a DivX video from your site. If you scoff at automatic HTML code generators, then our SDK is for you.

Option 1:
Code Generator

Option 2:
BETA Code Generator

Option 3:
DivX Web Player Webmaster SDK
Cut and paste and you’re done
If all you’re looking to do is share a few video clips on your website, try the Code Generator. Enter the details, click “generate” and copy the HTML it spits out into your site.

Show off more videos
Along with easy HTML code creation, the BETA Code Generator allows you to add in recommended videos with your embedded DivX Web Player.

 For the developer in you
For webmasters and small content creators looking for a tool to publish high-quality videos online for free: this SDK, a little HTML and some JavaScript is all you need to get started. (Audience not included.)

The important details

  • Link to us

Embedded DivX videos won't play...

I can no longer watch any embedded DivX video which I have posted on my blog, nor watch any embedded DivX video anywhere else. This happened a few months ago when I upgraded to Firefox 3.0.1 - why is this?

Please try DivX Web Player 1.4.2 Beta 1, which should fix compatibility with Firefox 3.

I would be absolutely thrilled to market and publicize the Divx Web Player.
Unfortunately, it has terrible problems and inconsistencies. It unfortunately has moved downhill since 1.2.

It flat out doesn't work. The buffering has some kind of bug in it, where it is totally inconsistent.

PLEASE fix it.

Jon, can you try DivX Web Player 1.4.2 Beta 1?

If you still have problems please post them in the new Features and Bugs forum. With respect to buffering problems it would help to know which page you're viewing, how full you let the buffer get, where you seek to, etc. so that we can try to recreate any problem that you are seeing.

I see 'Web Player' is in this slot, instead of 'DivX Player'.
Are you going to add another slot for the regular player?

With all the changes to the site, I am gettiing excited thinking of what all is being done to the products.

I can hardly wait for something to test!

Gary
