Frequently asked questions
Will quality drop converting DivX to MPG?
Yes, some loss is expected: the DivX video is re-encoded to the older MPEG-1/MPEG-2 codec used in MPG. That codec is less efficient, so preserving quality usually means a higher bitrate and a bigger file.
Why convert DivX to MPG?
MPG holds MPEG-1/2 video, the format behind Video CDs, DVDs and recorded TV, so it suits older players and authoring tools that expect that standard rather than a DivX AVI container.
Where will an MPG file open?
MPG opens in VLC on Windows, macOS and Linux and in most legacy DVD/VCD-era players. As an open standard it has wide support, though the codec is dated.
What is lost or changed with DivX to MPG?
Embedded DivX subtitles and chapters generally do not carry over, and the less efficient MPEG-1/2 compression tends to produce a larger file for the same visual quality.
