I have created a petition page in support for better XviD playback on the PS3. For those that do not know, the PS3 has problems playing a large amount of XviD videos. We have official support for Divx so let's try to push for the widely popular XviD format so the PS3 will be able to play a larger selection of videos.

Please click on the link below to view and sign the petition and improve XviD support on the PLAYSTATION®3:

Thank you for all those who sign the petition and support what will be the best next-generation console!

AFAIK the problem is stuff like "QPel" and "MotionCompansation" (or the such), not XviD itself.

Sony just needs to iron out the support for those additional features of the codec.
IMO they haven't done that in 2.10 because of the short time they spent till releasing it or to prevent possible expoits through it....
