yes, yes you are a tool...im glad you understand that

Probably not exactly what you are after, but I usually just convert the AVIs to a DVD format and watch it on the player.

AVI is just a container be more specific. You can use AVI's to encase x624 or whatever it is, xvid, divx, etc. Think of an AVI as a jar, you can put jam in that jar, beer, scotch or even a turd.

My guess is you're after one that plays divx, only problem with that is I think the divx has to be device compliant before devices can play it (I remember seeing a warning on the divx encoder). My advice would be do what that other guy said, just convert the thing to dvd and play that.

their dvd player owns. plays everything. picture quality has been ranked up with the Denon 5910.

also upscales to 1080i through DVI

I have one, love it.

There's a stack of different ones around. I have a Zensonic Z330 which is awesome but I think has been superseded. http://www.zensonic.com.au/ no idea what their things cost these days.

Also have a black Conia from http://www.dealsdirect.com.au/search/divx/ which works fine so far, but hasn't been used as much as the Zensonic. It's sold out there, but the one that is in stock is probably fine also. I assume they all work similarly these days.

I have an LG DV9723P. It plays Divx's, mp3's etc etc. All the fun stuff that you'd want. It was really cheap too ~$90 from JB's. Definitely recommend it. If you go to a JB's or similar store and walk around the DVD player section, you'll see the ones that can play divx actually have it written quite clearly on the machine and the box.

i used a pioneer that was rock solid and great interface. now i have a panasonic dvd/vcr combo with divx. it is even better, can cue and rewind divx at multi speeds, watch DRM divx, all sorts of stuff. i got mine for $218 but i'm connected XD

Make yourself a media center box, then you don't have to worry about new codecs and s*** when they come out, and you can customize it to do what you like, though it'll cost more :/

Got a Zensonic z340 it works quite well.

Modded xbox with XBMC will do the trick also.

zensonic ftw
