A few days after DivX.com updated its codec of the same name, it now also comes with a new version for the program to encode video images with it. Some of the new niceties in this version are support for AC3 sound and MP3 CBR/VBR audio encoding, a bitrate calculator, and of course it uses the aforementioned new DivX 5.2 codec.
