Supports: TIFF, TIF
.tif or .tiff images from your device. Multi-page TIFFs and large batches of single-page TIFFs are supported — drop a whole microscopy stack, scan run, or rendered animation sequence in one pass..divx output.TIFF is the format you keep masters in — uncompressed, 16-bit-per-channel scans, multi-page document captures, microscopy z-stacks, render passes from Blender or Maya. DivX is one of the original MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile codecs (alongside Xvid) and the playback target most older DVD set-top boxes, car head units, and PMPs were certified against. Turning a TIFF sequence into a DivX AVI gives you a single, scrub-friendly file that plays on hardware that often won't touch H.264, HEVC, or anything in an MP4 wrapper.
Need a different output? See TIFF to MP4 for the modern H.264 default, TIFF to AVI to pick a non-DivX codec inside the same container, TIFF to Xvid for the open-source MPEG-4 ASP twin, or TIFF to GIF for a quick web-friendly loop. If you already have a DivX file and want to modernize it, DivX to MP4 re-encodes to H.264.

If the TIFF count divided by the chosen frame rate equals the runtime you want, the duration is correct.
Only one reason: the device on the receiving end refuses H.264. That's a real constraint for DivX-Certified DVD players sold in the 2003–2012 window, several aftermarket car head units, and a sub-set of PMPs from that era. For browsers, phones, smart TVs, and any modern hardware, H.264 in MP4 is smaller, plays everywhere, and is what TIFF to MP4 outputs by default. Pick DivX when the playback target is the constraint.
That's what the Merge strategy option controls. Merge images (the default) writes one DivX AVI containing every page of every uploaded TIFF in upload order, each held for the Image Duration you set. Video per image writes one AVI per page — useful when each page is a separate exhibit, scan, or render that you want clipped individually.
No. The encoder picks a single output resolution (your Video resolution preset, or the first frame's dimensions if you keep original) and then fits each TIFF inside that frame, padding any unused area with the Background Color you chose. The default Black behaves like a normal letterbox/pillarbox. Set it to white for document scans on a paper-style background.
DivX is video-only; the AVI container carries audio in a separate stream. Because your input is a TIFF image sequence, the converter writes a video-only AVI (no audio stream) by default — there's nothing to mute and nothing to strip. If you need narration over the slideshow, render the DivX AVI first, then merge audio in a video editor.
Yes. DivX (MPEG-4 Part 2 ASP) is an 8-bit-per-channel codec — full stop. Any 16-bit-per-channel TIFF (common from scientific cameras, high-end scanners, and RAW-developed images) is mapped down to 8-bit during encoding. If you need to preserve >8-bit dynamic range, keep the TIFF masters and only use the DivX AVI for review/playback.
There's no published per-batch file count, but the practical limit is upload size and your connection speed and the runtime of the resulting video. A 1080p DivX AVI at 30 fps with 9,000 frames lands around five minutes of runtime and 600 MB-ish at the default Very High quality preset. Drop the resolution to 720p or the frame rate to 24 fps to fit longer stacks.
DivX is MPEG-4 Part 2 ASP (1999-era compression); H.264 (2003) is roughly 30–50% more efficient at the same perceptual quality, and HEVC is roughly half H.264 again. A 600 MB DivX AVI of a 5-minute 1080p slideshow typically lands at 300–400 MB as an H.264 MP4. If file size matters more than legacy compatibility, use TIFF to MP4 instead.
If the DVD player has the DivX Certified logo on the front panel, yes — drop the .avi file into the disc's root directory as a UDF or ISO9660 data disc, not as a DVD-Video VIDEO_TS structure. Players without DivX certification can only read VIDEO_TS-authored discs and will ignore loose AVI files. Aftermarket car head units from the late-2000s to early-2010s commonly support DivX playback off USB sticks as well.
