I sent mine out at about 9:00 am EST and I went to bed about 11:00 am,and still had not received mine...upon waking up I got mine at 5:53pm

I stop by AfterDawn three times a day or more. The instant I saw this I clicked the link and the offer had expired already. XviD looks better anyway IMO.

Hey DikDimond!!!
Aliens do not exist. Everyone knows that earth is the only mass in the universe that has life on it. Duh...

Total crap. I checked afterdawn several times today like I do everyday. It expired in my time zone before the time advertised. I have a DivX certified DVD player and thought this company was one worth supporting and then they pull this crap.

Are you sure about that i mean have they seen every universe and solar system??? Besides , I chose it from alien, as in alien 1,2,3,4 and AvP :)

You guys are idiots. The news was posted late here, that's why the offer didn't seem to last long. I got mine on the 28th early in the evening.

Part of the reason why they were doing this, was to promote DivX inc.

Seems like they've quite the opposite as far as pulling the offer down goes.

If it's due to server issues, that's alright, but to pull the offer down early is a bit of a sham..

DONT EVEN GO THERE

Update -- I did get in on time (yesterday morning): Still no email from them :(

Usually when I have clicked on a link like this DivX Create deal , the e-mail shows up right away. It did not so I clicked again. Nothing . I clicked on it using another email address. Nothing. I clicked again , using my original e-mail address. Now it said ,email address already registered. Still no e-mail. Later the link said the offer expired. Oh well

I checked my e-mail today. I have 3 serial numbers.... Lifes a bitch sometimes

mx6bfast,

I used their online feedback form. Helpdesk

I got a response with s SN faster than a lot of people did who actually got in on time.

It goes to show you that they take care of their help desk.

They do have a lot at stake over the next 5 years. MPEG4 is going to replace MPEG2 on several levels, to help with HD content.

You are talking about MPEG-4 replacing MPEG-2.

Give me an explanation about what the differences between all the MPEG's are because I looked some up at the glossary but not too informative. I read somewhere that even Blu-Rays and HDDVD were going to still be MPEG-2's.

---

They really should start making MPEG-4 the norm with the release of BluRay and HD-DVD. It shouldn't even be a matter of opinion, everyone knows that it can create a better quality at a lower bitrate.
I haven't recieved an e-mail yet, but it would only be a dissapointment if it isn't recieved. Oh well...

I feel bad for you guys cause this deal was legit. I actually got 2 free keys from them on the same email (lol glitch in the system).

I don't really like DivX much but I got a real licence key free so who cares.

Here is what the email looks like.

If you haven't gotten your SN yet, open up a call ticket in help desk.

Wait unit tomorrow.

MPEG2 is 1GB per Hour, DVB 544x480. (SVHS quality)
MPEG2 is 1.5 to 2GB per Hour DVB 704x480 (DVD quality)
MPEG2 is DVD 720x480. (Normal quality)
Bit rate as a lot of impact on file size.

MPEG4 is 250MB per hour, 544x480 (SVHS quality)
MPEG4 is 600MB per hour, 900x500 (HD quality)

The actual difference is MPEG4 is 4 times smaller for the same video quality as MPEG2.

When you consider HD content, where one hour of MPEG HD could be as large as 8 to 10GB, this makes a big difference.

HD-DVD is 25GB, with MPEG2, there's room for one movie and some extras. With MPEG4 its the same as a 100GB disc. Effectivly giving you room for 4 HD movies.

u guys are bunch of idiots r what i got my like a hour later except it's in the junk pile.

I don't know what is funnier, the fact that you are calling me an idiot, or the fact that the person calling people an idiot posts like he has a 1st grade education. Wow.

for those of you still complaining about the deal ending early read my previous post...

"The news was posted late here, that's why the offer didn't seem to last long. I got mine on the 28th early in the evening."

It looks like none of you think in TIME ZONES in spite of a membership that spreads all over the globe.

update--I checked the online support system; while my code never actually got emailed to me, it was supplied in response to the trouble ticket.

it didn't work with certain email addresses.

Like my hotmaill and gmail address... Well i got it work (thanks p2p)

I did not receive any DivX create serial number even ehen the offer is on. I would greatley appreciate if anyone send the DivX create serial number through my email as i am urgently in need of one. Thanks and I hope i would get the serial number through my email soon.

Had you read the forum rules, you would have noticed that is is against them, to request serials/passwords.

Your fate is now left upto the mods..

xbx360ps3, this offer expired at the end of September. Even some of the fast-clickers weren't quick enough.
