DivX Formats: AVI and MKV Containers
From its development as a codec, DivX evolved into a specification for the AVI container that uses the DivX or Xvid codecs and MP3 or AC-3 audio. Developers creating DivX Media Format (DMF) AVI files, which use an .AVI or .DIVX file extension, adhere to the DivX encoding guidelines. The DivX format also became popular on Divx-certified consumer electronics devices, including DVD and Blu-ray players, portable video players and mobile phones.
The newer DivX Plus HD format uses the MKV/Matroska container with H.264 video and AAC audio (see Matroska). DivX Plus HD supports multilingual subtitles, surround sound and multiple audio tracks and titles. Like the DivX format, encoders must comply with certain specifications.
