What affects the quality of downloads ?
One of the main factors that determine the image quality of movie downloads is where the movie came from. If the movie originates from a good source then there are pretty much two factors that affect the quality of the movie, the size and the video codec used. To get the best possible quality when you download movies, make sure that the movies use a video codec such as DivX® or XviD and AC3 codec that they originate from a good source.

What size is a typical movie download?
The file size of movie downloads vary a lot based on the runtime of the movie and the bitrate used when encoding it. You should expect a typical DivX or XviD movie to be around 600MB-700MB in size. If a movie is longer than 2 hours it might need even more space to ensure that the quality is acceptable.

How long does it take to download a movie?
It will always help to have a fast Internet connection, but your download speed will also be limited by the Internet connection of the source you're downloading the movie from.

Please note that the transfer times displayed above are calculated based on the maximum download speed of your Internet connection. When you download from a fast and reliable server you might be able to achieve similar times to these, but usually your movie downloads will most likely take a bit longer.

How do I play downloads in my DVD-player?
First of all, we suggest that you check the DVD Player Compatibility list to figure out if your DVD-player supports DivX® and/or XviD playback or not. If your DVD-player supports DivX® and/or XviD playback then you simply need to burn the movie to a CD/DVD and it should play right away. If your player doesn't support playback of DivX® or XviD you first have to convert the video to MPEG-2 and then record it as a DVD or SVCD, depending on what formats your player actually supports. You can find helpful information about video conversion/authoring at the VideoHelp web site.

How do I watch downloads on my TV ?
If you've got a video card with TV-out support then you should be able to connect your PC directly to your television and view DivX and XviD videos on it. If the card doesn't support TV-out you can find one for about the same amount as a basic card. You might also have to get a video cable to connect your computer to your TV. Then you simply reconfigure your computer so it sends the video signal to your TV when you play DivX and XviD videos.
