Re: will pioneer dvd player play divx properly

In the family we have or had Pioneer 470, 590 (?), 696 and a couple of others I can't remember. They all play divx, xvids properly, no problems....hence I stick to Pioneer 696 is the newest model we we own and the 490 is of the same generation. I'd be confident it will play them properly. what is the res of the file that is playing in a small window out of interest ?

I own a pioneer 575 and that seems to play most stuff in full screen. Though with 4:3 material I seem to get the black borders at either side
