DivX Helium codec demonstrates the latest research into processor optimization, achieving encoding times up to twice as fast as DivX 6 in the highest quality (Insane) mode when run on dual core, HT and SMP CPUs.

Please note that this release takes advantage of multi-thread capable systems, like SMP multi-processors, HyperThreaded and Dual Core processors. You will only see marginal improvement with single-thread systems.

The DivX Helium installer contains only the Helium codec. You will need to install the DivX 6 Create Bundle before installing DivX Helium on top of it. If you are not already a registered user of DivX Pro, you may install the free DivX Create Bundle 6-month trial and install the DivX Helium codec on top of that.
