Description

The Pocket DivX Player is a FREE Open Source multifunction video and audio player for the PocketPC platform that can play DivX, OpenDivX, MPEG-4, MPEG-1 videos and MP3 audio.

Thanx to the hard work and dedication of Marc Dukette and Pedro, who now lead the development team of the Pocket DivX Player. We finally have a media player for the PPC platform that we feel has surpassed any others that are currently available today. A special thanx to Oliver Drobnik, who was the first individual to start this project and to William Kinfoussia for all his help and support to this team.
