Another reason I decided to analyze patents involved in this case is that we are lately working a lot in the video technology domain. Netflix, Hulu, and Divx – all these companies are big names in their domain and it seemed like a great case to run our patent strength check on. Netflix directly infringes the DivX Patents by making, using, offering to sell, selling, and/or importing into the United States internet video streaming technology, software, and services that practice the inventions claimed in the DivX Patents. According to them: “DivX patents disclose technologies that enable many benefits, including receipt and playback of streaming digital video on a wide variety of consumer electronic devices high-quality video playback, including 4K high-resolution video, without stalls robust and efficient DRM and features that improve user experience, including trick play and fast start”. In its complaint, DivX has argued that Netflix and Hulu are infringing their 8 and 7 patents respectively. Technologies related to video processing, storage, and streaming are the most important innovation areas for these companies and it is not surprising to witness patent litigations in these areas. Now, as video-on-demand services like Netflix, Hulu, Prime videos, and HBO, are becoming increasingly popular, the video technology industry is bound to see increased competition. In its history of 19 years, DivX has been in multiple mergers and acquisitions and has made multiple headlines with their innovations in video technology.

The DirectShow filters are included in the DivX Plus Codec Pack, which is a one-time download that contains the codec (video for Windows), DivX decoder for DirectShow, and various filters, namely the H.264 decoder, the AAC decoder, the MKV Splitter, and the Windows 7 exclusive MKV Splitter - Media Foundation.On March 5 this year, DivX LLC again made it to the headline, as it asserted a patent lawsuit against Hulu and Netflix for infringing their multiple video compression, encryption, and streaming patents.ĭivX is easily one of the most famous names in video technology domain with over 1 billion devices licensing their video processing and encoding technology globally.

This pack contains the codec itself that enables the playback of MPEG-4 ASP and H.264 video (HD formats), plus a free H.264 decoder with a built-in but optional DXVA hardware acceleration featured, which can be toggled on and off in the DivX Plus control panel. The DivX codec is distributed by what is commonly known as the DivX Plus Codec Pack, which replaced the former DivX Community Codec. The DivX codec has the capability of compressing huge video files into more manageable chunks, which can then be read by a DivX-compatible device (such as modern DVD players) and computers that can decompress the video by use of the same codec.
DivX later dropped the smiley from their products’ brand name and trademarked the word “DivX”, in time with the release of the first version, DivX 4.0. Usually, when one talks of DivX, this is either to pertain to the DivX codec, which is used to play MPEG-4 Part 2 and H.264 MPEG-4 (the latter of which is the HD version) file format videos, and the DivX Plus Player, the proprietary media player of the company that supports a huge variety of video types from the outset.
