How can I watch my purchased DivX VOD content on my DivX Certified® device?

Create a DivX Account

You’ll need a DivX Account before you can watch your purchased DivX VOD content—whether it’s on your computer or a on a DivX Certified® device.

To easily create a DivX Account, open DivX Player, go to the VOD menu, and click “Create a DivX Account…” Enter your information in the spaces provided and click “Create Account”.



Register the computer

Once you have created a new DivX Account or have logged into an existing one, your computer will be automatically registered to that account. You will then be able to play any purchased DivX VOD content on your computer.  


Register a device

To watch your purchased DivX content on a DivX Certified device, you need to complete a one-time registration. You can register up to five DivX Certified devices to your DivX account.

To register your DivX Certified device, open DivX Player, go to the VOD menu, and click “Register a DivX Certified device…” Log in or create your DivX Account if you have not done so already.



Enter registration code & device name

1. Enter the DivX VOD registration code for your device: To find your code, check the on-screen setup menus of the device or your device’s user manual. It will be a code of either 8 or 10 characters under a DivX VOD menu.



2. Create a device name: This is a nickname that will help you easily recognize the device in your VOD Manager later on. Try using something simple that describes the device (like “PlayStation 3” or “Living Room DVD Player”) or the device’s brand name. Click the “Next” button to continue.

Save file

3. Download your registration video to play on your device: Choose a location on your computer where the registration video file will be saved. Pick something easy like ‘Desktop’ or ‘My Videos’ so you know where to find it. Then click the “Next” button again to go on.



You will see a progress bar that illustrates how much of the download has completed. Once the download of your registration video is completed, click “Next” to continue.

 

Transfer file

4. Transfer your video: Once your registration video is downloaded, it needs to be transferred to the device where you will play it. Start by clicking on the “Get Registration Video” button—this will take you to the location of your video.


To transfer the registration video to your device, you can either burn it to a CD or DVD, access it over a network or copy it to another external storage device, like a USB flash drive.* For burning to disc, use your preferred method such as your computer’s CD or DVD burner and your operating system’s built-in file burning system’ to transfer the file.

*NOTE: The method of transfer you should choose will depend on the type of device you have and which methods it supports for DivX playback. For example, burn to a CD if you have a DVD Player, access over a network if you have a networked storage device, or copy it to the built-in storage of your mobile phone using its USB cable. Get additional information on burning a disc on your Windows or Mac computer.

Play file

5. Play your registration video: The final step in the registration process is to play your registration video on your device. Just put the burned disc or USB drive with your registration video in your device, or navigate your device’s networked or built-in storage file menus to select your registration video. When the brief registration video is finished playing, you’re done! Your device is ready for you to watch your purchased DivX VOD content whenever you want.

You only need to complete this registration once for each DivX Certified device that you want to play purchased DivX VOD content.
