[SOLVED] Make DIVX files look like XVID

The LG BD645 Bluray player supports XVID files but not DIVX(No doubt LG saving a buck by not paying DIVX for the codec).

Is there a way that Serviio could be set up so that it could make the player play DIVX files? Sort of putting a fake face on the file :)

Not yet, avi is delivered in native format, no change by serviio...

For example, edit serviio/config/profiles.xml file, on profile id=8 "LG TV"...

Change
  Code:
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>


by

  Code:
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>


or


  Code:
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/x-ms-avi" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>


then restart serviio services for each test.
