DivX player for PS2

Written by Petteri Pyyny @ 02 Dec 2002 1:52 User comments (5)

According to a blurp at Slashdot, there's finally a working DivX player for Sony Playstation 2 available.
The player obviously requires a modchip in order to work correctly (otherwise you can't load "homebrew" software items) and according to the Spanish site that hosts the software, it is capable of playing all flavors of DivX (DivX3.11alpha, DivX4.x and DivX5.x).

When you shake your phone and hear a light rattle, clatter, or jingle, it's likely not broken. The culprit is probably the optical image stabilization (OIS) system in your phone's camera, meaning everything is functioning as it should.

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum
We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
