DivX and LG announced this week that LG's newest DVD player, the DVS450H, has been certified for DivX playback. The DVS450H is also capable of playing back high-definition DivX videos burned to DVD or stored on a USB flash drive.

DivX, Inc. (NASDAQ: DIVX), a digital media company, and LG Electronics, Inc. today announced the DivX Certification™ of a new DVD player from LG capable of playing high-definition DivX® video.

Incorporating a stylish and sleek design capable of being mounted on a wall, LG’s new DivX Certified® DVD player, the DVS450H, allows consumers to play their personal libraries of high-definition digital content. With this device, consumers can enjoy high-definition DivX videos burned to DVD’s or stored on USB flash drives. Typical HD video requires a considerable amount of digital storage space, but DivX HD video provides a superior media experience by maintaining the highest visual quality while significantly reducing the digital file size of the video. Using DivX technology, a full-length high-definition movie is able to fit onto a standard DVD.

The DVS450H will ship in October for a suggested retail price of $238. If you'd like to read more, LG and DivX's entire press release can be found here.
