Hi,


For some reason this Post has ended up with and iChat and iChat Shairng categorisation

The Question has nothing to do with iChat.


ON the matter of DIVX I have no idea.

Well, checking on their site reveals this interesting note:

I'm not sure, but it sounds as though the software is/was being discontinued.


Other than that, unless you are trying to circumvent copyright/DRM issues, it should be fine as long as it is fully compatible with the OS version you are running.


According to this site, some of it is compatible with ML, some with Lion:
