take them out of that outdated and terrible container known as 'avi'
My thoughts exactly. Don't know why anyone is still using those (that) containers anymore.
Besides, saying that you have a issue with divx/xvid isn't the same as saying there is an issue with h.264. Divx/Xvid is a container and h.264 is a codec and you really need to know both as some devices only support specific codecs in specific containers.
Because I have 10+ years of a media collection and not the resources/desire to re-encode them all. Also what container do you recommend? I find it incredibly hard to believe that playing old 480p video in Xvid/Divx should be a problem considering my xbox running xbmc4xbox streams it flawlessly. There's gotta be a simple solution if it was mastered 10+ years ago.

look 2 posts up...geez
I can play mkv, MPEG2 and mp4 files fine. My question was specifically on xvid.divx avi files. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that is addressed by this test build
Geez
No beta 4/firetv build did not solve this, at least in my experience.
