Go to DivX.com and download the driver?

Stream them to your ps3/x360 (which I guess you have if you've got the add-on).

I used to just divx files onto my ps3's hard drive & watch them from that.

Easier to just stream to your 360 via WMP. I show it on the PS3 but it won't stream? Kind of weird, or course the files could be Xvid and I remember reading something about PS3 having problems streaming that...

Anyway, that's the cheaper alternative rather than buying an external drive and formatting it for the PS3/360 for DIVX/XVID playback.

UPDATE: Just tried to decode streaming XVID file from my PS3 (first time I have tried with FW 2.30) and it seems to work fine. I may start using this more than the 360 since it's much QUIETER!
