Today, DivX and LG Electronics announced that the upcoming line of HDTVs from LG will carry the DivX Certification for full 1080p DivX playback. LG says its new line of TVs will be available in late May in the United States, and within the next eight days in Europe.
With the DivX 7 software package, users can compress a full HD movie onto a USB stick or SD card, or several on a standard DVD. The company says a 2-hour 1080p feature film (H.264 .mkv) can fit on an 8GB SD card. The companies mentioned that these TVs will be able to play back DivX content "from the PC or the Internet through the USB slot."
