how is my D3 playing an avi??? (no, really)


Recommended Posts

i know this isnt supposed to work but it did. heres a screenshot from finder showing that the file on the disk is an avi.

 

i didnt think it would work, but i figured id give it a shot anyway and it worked just fine. watched the movie all the way through without a single issue. btw if u havent seen it, put it at the top of your list. amazing film.

 

anyways, im a little confused as to why this would work. any ideas? i dont really recall how i went about burning it, but i think it was most likely that i created a burn folder in finder (mac) and just clicked burn. also, its a verbatim dvd-r.

 

btw i see that it says divx in the file name, but it cant possibly be that easy. anyway, thats just what it was named by whoever upped it.

That is a DivX file which the D3 does support. Nothing new here. Also, what your looking at in that file is the name added to the file. Right click on the actual file and it will likely indicate that it is a DivX file. Regardless an AVI file encoded as DivX will work.
