Q: Does QuickTime have xvid support?

According to Apple's QuickTime support page there is an Xvid component. When I click on that link and get to the website there is not Mac component. In fact it states there is none at this time unless you use Perrian which is obviously no longer supported. When trying to open a divx file with QuickTime it says it can't be opened So, is the component built into QuickTime or not? Why the apparent discrepancy? The Xvid website shows an Apple logo yet there are no downloads for Mac.

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
