DivX and Samsung have jointly announced that high-end Samsung HDTVs will soon be able to support DivX files through USB devices or DLNA-certified Ethernet connections.
Beginning in 2009, DivX Certified HDTVs will be available from Samsung allowing for the playback. Samsung currently has deals with DivX for products ranging from mobile phones to DVD players.
DivX is a codec that allows for small file sizes along with good quality video using MPEG-4 ASP compression.
Samsung's decision makes it the third TV maker to do so, following LG and HP.
