Which distro are you on? And please do not install the divx codec from the site.. Linux has gstreamer/xine backends which decode all files..

vish, no divx codec is not better.. Just do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" that should help you play all files.

DivX 6.1.1 codec for Linux is free and includes DivX Pro features.
Known issues

* This version does not support multithreading.
