Software :: How Do You Get DivX Web Player Off Your Mac?
Dec 6, 2010
How do you get DivX web player off your Mac? I just installed the latest version for DivX Labs and I can't even find it in Applications, it doesn't show up at all and I want it gone!
I desperately need to go back to an earlier version so it will work with my favorite site, and I can't get at it at all, or get it off my Mac. Now I can't watch anything at all on my favorite site, it just flat does not work and I'm desperate!
I could watch videos on that site all day long until I upgraded, and now I'm so totally bummed out! I looked for three years to find that site, and I only found it three days ago!
This new version of DivX web player will not let you download or save anything at all, so I guess I know what their agenda was and who was funded by.

This is what I hate about osx. On windows I could install a codec pack and it works the way it should. I tried installing both the divx web player and divx 7 for mac on my new SL machine, but whenever i go to a website that needs it, nothing happens.

I've burnt a few .avi files onto a DVD and I'm having problems viewing them on my DVD/Divx player.
I can view the files on my computer, but not on my DVD/Divx player.
I've never had this problem before.

Installed Leopard and everything has been going great until I tried Divx player. So I deleted it and reinstalled a newer version and still does not work at all. However, I'm still able to use VLC. Anybody else having problems with Divx player and Leopard?

I'm fairly new to mac so your patience is appreciated.
When I transfer an avi movie onto a usb flash drive from my PC it works fine in my Divx player but I seem to have a problem when putting the same movie from my mac onto the usb key. The Divx player does not read the usb key?
Also, which "forat" should I use in the disk utility when erasing (formatting) the flash drive (i.e. MS DOS (FAT) ... MAC OS Extended ...) ?

how to open several avi. movie files I have downloaded onto my Mac (version 10.5). First, I tried to open them just simply on QuickTime player, but a got a 'this is not a movie file' error message, so I Google'd and found advice telling me to download VLC in order to open avi files to QuickTime player. So, I downloaded VLC and tried to open one of the files with that - except when it opened on VLC there was no video and only the audio sped up really fast (you know, where they sound like chipmunks xD) and then it stopped. So, baffled, I then tried to open it again on QuickTime, but got that error message again *
So I Google'd a bit more, and found advice telling me to download DivX Player, which should open/play avi files - so, I d/w'd it.... but alas, the files wouldn't play audio or video, it didn't seem to show up.
I've looked on the info when it's opened on VLC, and it describes the streams (not sure what these are) as having both mpga and mpgv codecs.... so do I need to download a program that can open these files? Is there a codec program I need still?
* OR, am I not using VLC player correctly?

I was wondering if it is possible to use VLC media player or video LAN to stream divx videos off the internet. I like to watch divx videos on stagevu but i dont like to use divxs player because it seems buggy. I have downloaded VLC before I had the divx player and couldnt figure out how to get it to play streamed videos. Is VLC capable of this or is it just for media on the hard drive or a disc.

I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post this query - moderately new user - well had my imac for 2 years but havent spent a lot of time getting up to speed with it - needs basis only.
query - i have eyetv elgato about 2 years old running vers 2.5.3 of the related software - I have a hard disc full of recorded material and want to convert it to divx - bought Divx Pro - mind you only $30 Australian- in the understanding that it would easily and quickly!! (toast takes about 3 days!) convert .eyetv files to divx avi - that function is available on the pull down menu in eyetv and it did it once when i used a trial version of Divx Pro.
Now it refuses to do it saying that the version i have is not supported and to go back to divx - i have the latest version of divx though.
I do notice that eyetv are selling their own divx converter for $100 and suspect this may be the issue
Does anyone else have this problem or know a workaround to it - do i have to go back to older versions??
Divx have told me that they dont have any agreements with or information about eyetv and to go and ask eyetv. Eyetv have not so far responded to my requests for an answer.

It seems even after the latest software updates to DivX for the Mac, they are still not offering the DivX Plus HD profile in the DivX converter. I have already invested a significant amount of time and processor resources on my PC converting hundreds of my DVD's to this format, as I believe the video quality versus disk space are the best in its class. A typical DVD takes about 1.2 gigs of hard drive space with very minimal loss in quality!
With that said, can I use Handbrake to get the same results? If so, do you have any suggestions on the options I should choose ? I should note this is what DivX says their Plus HD is:
DivX Plus HD (MKV/H.264/AAC)

does anybody know how to uninstall Divx? (or disable it temporarily)
i installed Divx on my MP to watch movies. then i installed WC3, but it keeps crashing. it seems that divx is the reason.
(i figure WC3 plays a small clip when we run it for the first time, and there might be some sort of conflict in the video codec, so WC3 crashes)

i cannot get the program to uninstall , it seems there is no such function ...
i deleted some of it thru the library , but its still on sys pref and other locations i'm sure...
and no 2nd 3rd party apps , i won't spend as much as divx would have cost me to remove it...

I've got an AVI file which I want to play on my DVD player which accepts a USB hard drive plug in. Thing is, it doesn't read .avi. However, on the player it does have a DIVX logo on it so what can I use to convert this .avi so that it plays?

soo, i have attempted to watch several videos via safari that require DivX that say I don't have it installed. It is installed. I decided to try Firefox and it worked. Does DivX just not work with Safari?

I have some files from a CVS disposable camcorder that are Divx encoded. I got them to play on my Mac with the Divx codec and/or Perian, but I can't import them into iMovie.
Will QuickTime Pro solve this problem by allowing me to convert to a format iMovie likes?
Is there a freeware solution involving less than two steps?

I've been trying to stream DivX video from the internet and it's been working ok except for a handful that play the video with no sound. The site I was on suggested I install the K-Light codec pac, but, of course, I'm on a mac so I installed Perian which I understand is the equivalent and still no sound. could the Perian audio output option make a difference?

I have an iMac and an ACD monitor connected, therefore I have no open port to connect to my 37" Panasonic LCD.
I'd like to connect the TV to my iMac somehow, I'm wondering if wireless is a (reliable) possibility. If so how do I go about it?
Do I buy a 'media router', such as the D-Link DSM-750? Then simply plug the TV's HDMI port into the D-Link? (I'm not network savvy at all.) Sounds simple enough if that's the case....
Are there any better ways, or better products that I can use to play divx files wirelessly to my TV?
Also, I'm using an Apple Airport Extreme Time Capsule, would the D-Link replace this or could I (easily) hook it up to my Apple router?

I am using OS 10.4.11. I am up to date on everything -- java, quicktime, and divx. I have checked and double checked everything I know how and I have emptied all caches I know of.
And yet, after working perfectly for years, about a week ago, every time I went to a certain site on which I usually watch much video (embedded divx player,) instead of the player in the window, I see (no video.)

I have noticed my imac 27" has started being choppy with playback of both divx and flash. I know there are other threads about this for flash but I haven't heard much about divx. I tried installing divx, vlc, and perian, but in all the playback is choppy.

I just bought a new Kenwood DNX-9140 for my car that plays DivX files. I also bought a 500GB external hard drive. My Kenwood unit can play files from external hard drives. I want to rip my DVDs to my external hard drive and play them on my Kenwood unit. I want to be able to keep the menu functions on the ripped DVD file.
Keep the ripped file to ONE DivX file. It would be best if I could keep the final file under 3GB. Basically, opening the file and acting like it's playing a normal DVD. I know it's a lot to ask but if this can be done in as little steps as possible it would be awesome. I spent many hours searching and experimenting for the answer.

I'm a big handbrake user, but its very tedious to have to manually queue everything. Its just not practical when you've got 50+ files to do at once.
Does anyone know of a converter that just lets you bulk convert say an entire directory to h.264 from a bunch of different filetypes?

With the advent of the PS3 getting Divx subtitle support in it's latest firmware revision, I'm trying to encode a Divx file to add subtitles. I can't for the life of me find a Mac application that will add a subtitle stream to a Divx file - usually this results in the creation of a .divx file. (.divx file containers support multiple audio and subtitle stream, and that is the format the PS3 requires the file to be in to play back the subtitles).
I do not want to "burn in" the subtitles to the video stream as this would require transcoding the video, which I do not want to do (time consuming, and can ruin a perfectly good encode). I've found the following programs for Windows, but can't seem to find a Mac equivalent:
http://www.calcitapp.com/AVIAddXSubs.php
http://www.trustfm.net/divx/SoftwareAviSub.php?b2=1
http://userxp.tripod.com/sub2divx.htm
As you can see by those bits of software, they simply take the avi file, the srt file and combines them into a .divx file with no transcoding. Has anyone got a similar solution for the mac world? I tried using the AVIAddXSubs via Darwine but it didn't seem to work.

I have tried to remove all components of quicktime but to no avail.the download intalls but goes nowhere.Have tried to maybe 'jumpstart' it by double clicking quicktime time movies but there is just nothing going on.
