 OpenDivX support in MPlayer

 There is a very alpha hack to convert mpeg video into OpenDivX .avi files.
-You should disable audio, and select 'odivx' video device as output:
-  mplayer input.mpg -nosound -vo odivx -encode output.avi
+Audio is automatically disabled. Select 'odivx' video device as output:
+  mplayer input.mpg -vo odivx -encode output.avi
 Yes, I know that it's unusable now, it's only for testing purposes.
