DivX Web Player

The DIVX web player is a portal to downloading and watching television and movies on your computer. You will find many ways to use the player, but you need to look over the compatible file types to see if this Web player will work for you.

The Pros

• The player requires plugin updates from time to time. You may have a hard time downloading the plugin when you are trying to get your next movie to play.
• Downloading the DIVX web player gives you the chance to watch all the movies and TV you prefer. You can binge watch whole seasons of your favorite TV shows, or you can catch a movie online that you have a hard time finding elsewhere.
