Hey everybody. I own a Pioneer CLD-V5000. I have some movies burned in .avi format(had to get codecs to play with Windows Media Player). They are on regular cd's.......close to the 700mb limit of the disc. I would like to watch them on the tv using the Pioneer. Am I not able to because the Pioneer does not have the correct codecs? And if so, after connecting the Pioneer to my computer, can I somehow install the necessary codecs so it will work? Any help would be appreciated.

no. your dvd player needs to have divx playback. From my experience pioneer, while excellent dvd players, are pathetic in their compatibility in regards to actually playing anything but dvd's.

Philips has some nice dvd players that absolutely work with divx/avi, I own one, and frequently burn movies to disc and watch them on tv.
