Supports: WEBP
WebP is Google's still and animated image format, shipping in Chrome since 2013 and in Safari since version 14 in September 2020. DivX, conversely, is MPEG-4 Part 2 (Advanced Simple Profile) video wrapped in an AVI container — a format that hit its peak around 2003-2010 and is still the only thing many older devices will play. Converting WebP to.divx bridges a 20+ year compatibility gap that modern formats can't.
If you don't specifically need.divx for a hardware player, WebP to MP4 gives 40-60% smaller files with H.264, WebP to AVI is a broader legacy container with more codec choices, and WebP to GIF keeps the animation in a format chat apps already display.
| Property | WebP | DivX |
|---|---|---|
| Released | 2010 (Google) | 1999, MPEG-4 Part 2 codec; 2003 onward DivX 5/6 |
| Type | Still / animated image | Video codec (MPEG-4 ASP) in AVI container |
| Audio track | No | Yes (MP3, AC3, PCM) |
| Browser playback | All modern (Chrome 32+, Firefox 65+, Safari 14+) | None natively |
| Hardware player support | Almost none | Wide (DivX-Certified TVs, DVD players, car stereos 2005-2018) |
| Compression | Excellent (~30% smaller than JPEG) | Modest (older codec than H.264/H.265) |
| Animation | Yes (per-frame ms timing) | Constant frame rate only |
| Typical file extension | .webp | .divx or.avi |
| Profile | Max Resolution | Max Avg Bitrate | Typical Hardware |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home Theater | 720×480 @ 30 fps (NTSC) or 720×576 @ 25 fps (PAL) | 600 kbps (12,500 kbps peak) | Standalone DVD players, car head units, older LCD TVs |
| DivX HD 720p | 1280×720 @ 30 fps | 4 Mbps | Mid-range DivX-Certified TVs, Blu-ray players |
| DivX HD 1080p | 1920×1080 @ 30 fps | 8 Mbps | Newer DivX-Certified TVs, DivX Plus HD players |
| DivX Plus HD | 1920×1080 @ 60 fps (H.264 in MKV) | 20 Mbps | 2010+ DivX Plus HD devices |
Stick with Home Theater for the widest hardware compatibility. The xconvert resolution presets at 720×576 or 720×480 hit that target directly.
Functionally yes, in most cases. DivX video is MPEG-4 Part 2 (Advanced Simple Profile) and almost always lives inside an AVI container; the.divx extension is just AVI with a DivX-specific FourCC tag (DIVX, DX50, etc.). Newer DivX Plus releases use MKV instead, but the classic DivX-Certified hardware ecosystem expects DivX-in-AVI. Renaming a.divx to.avi (or vice versa) usually works in software players like VLC and MPC-HC.
If it has a "DivX" or "DivX Certified" logo, almost certainly yes — provided you stay within the Home Theater profile (720×480 at 30 fps NTSC or 720×576 at 25 fps PAL, max 600 kbps average bitrate, MP3 or AC3 audio). Pick those resolutions from the Fixed Resolutions list and use the Constraint Quality preset to cap bitrate. Players without the DivX logo are hit-or-miss and may need a plain AVI with MPEG-4 instead — try WebP to AVI for that case.
Yes. Each frame of an animated WebP becomes a frame of the.divx output. To preserve the original playback speed, set Image Duration to 1/24s (cinematic 24 fps), 1/30s (web 30 fps), or 1/60s. Static WebPs become a single still extended to whatever Duration you choose (3-5 seconds is comfortable for slideshow viewing).
Keep merge strategy on the default (combine into one video), upload all WebP files at once, and set Image Duration to 3-5 seconds per frame. Pick a Background Color (Black is standard) to letterbox photos with different aspect ratios, then choose a Fixed Resolution like 720×480 (DVD-friendly) or 1280×720 so every frame outputs at the same size. The files merge in upload order — rename them with a leading zero (01, 02, 03...) if you need a specific sequence.
Both encode the same underlying format — MPEG-4 Part 2, Advanced Simple Profile — and DivX/Xvid decoders can play each other's output. The split is mostly historical: DivX is the commercial codec (DivX Inc., now Rovi), Xvid is the open-source clone (GPL). DivX-Certified hardware players are tuned to the official DivX profiles, so for legacy DVD/TV compatibility, encode using xconvert's DivX path — Xvid output usually plays too, but you lose the certification guarantee. See WebP to Xvid if your target software specifically asks for the Xvid FourCC.
This is expected. WebP is one of the most space-efficient still-image formats made — it compresses ~30% better than JPEG and ~26% better than PNG. DivX is a video codec from 1999 wrapped in an AVI container that adds per-frame headers and mandatory metadata, and its compression isn't competitive with H.264 (let alone H.265 or AV1). Expect a 5-20× size increase, especially with long per-frame durations and higher resolutions.
Not in this single-step converter — the.divx output is silent by default. The easiest path is to convert WebP →.divx here, then add audio in any AVI-aware editor (VirtualDub, Avidemux, Shotcut). If you need a one-step audio + video pipeline, convert to MP4 instead via WebP to MP4 and merge with a soundtrack in a downstream tool.
Files process on our servers, so the practical limit is upload size and connection speed. There's no per-account daily cap, no watermark, and no sign-up. Batch-converting 100+ static WebP photos into one DVD-resolution.divx slideshow typically finishes in under a minute on a modern laptop.
Pick Constant Quality (CRF) when you don't care about exact file size and just want consistent visual quality — the encoder uses whatever bitrate each frame needs. Pick Constraint Quality when you have a hard ceiling (e.g., the 600 kbps DivX Home Theater cap, or a fixed DVD-R budget) — the encoder honors the CRF target but never exceeds the bitrate limit. For most slideshows headed to legacy hardware, Constraint Quality at the Recommended preset is the right default.
