The video codec company DivX announced they are looking for a few individuals to help beta test "secret" items the company is creating. Although it is not entirely clear whether the company is testing hardware or software, the company has built a streaming media set top box named GejBox, named after DivX's creator.
According to Gej's post on the DivX Labs site, "Here at DivX we’re always looking out at the horizon, trying to figure out what the future holds. We’re aiming for peace, love, happiness, and goodwill to all mankind. We have a few slightly shorter-term sights as well, and the team in the labs have concocted up some pretty impressive stuff. This time, however, we want to include a few avid DivX fanatics to help us make sure we’re building the best technology we can come up with. We can’t go into more details just yet, but if you meet the following criteria, please fill out our application survey, we’d love to have you on board!
* You need to have a home network and a computer that’s fairly modern (let’s call it less than 2 years old)
* You’ve gotta have a few hours every week to use the technology, and give us feedback on it
* You have to have an existing DivX media library"
You can find the application at the source website.
