Mp3 Decisions
okay im looking at this mp3 player
http://reviews.cnet.com/Toshiba_Giga...l?tag=txt#more however when u get to the 5th paragrah it says "other video formats, such as MPEG-4, AVI, DivX, and MOV, are automatically transcoded in Windows Media Player 11 (DivX video support was planned but not implemented)." what exactlly does this mean? does it mean i just cant simple drag and drop a divx file in and watch it on the player. |

Right, the player is not capable of DivX playback. So when you transfer the file, the software will re-encode the video to Windows Media format, then you can watch it.
I've heard good things about the Gigabeat S though, as an alternative to the iPod. |
