Would be nice to not have to burn these to CD to play in my DIVX player.

No, not right now.

Currently the HR20 cannot share/play any video files, just music and photos.

If you have an old XBox hanging around, it is relatively easy to softmod it and install XBox Media Center on it. You have to buy a little bit of specialized hardware (a specific game and a memory card or USB adapter), but you don't have to open your XBox or make any hardware mods. And XBMC can play a bunch of different video formats, including DivX & XviD.

Maybe they should word on MPEG2 and MPEG4 first.

XBMC is the best. We modded our old xbox a couple years back. Great for any xvid, dvix or any type of other video that may come around.

Man Earl, don't give false hope. We will all be complaining about HR30s before D* even thinks about adding divx functionality.

I hear what you mean.........but XVid is MPEG-4....so is DiVX.

I'm hoping that when D* opens up video sharing/playback from PC (non-ViiV/MCE too !!) that they will allow all types of formats.....first clearly needs to be all versions of MPEG (MPG, IFO/VOB, etc.). I'm since alot of folks have movies stored in DVD format so I'm crossing my fingers D* will allow/enable Video_TS.IFO playback which runs the many VOBs (MPEG-2 file) that make up a single movie. :up:

I'm sure the masses would want AVI playback for the home movies that are captured.
