A while back, DivX sponsored the gdgt live event in Austin, TX during SXSW 2010. We handed out t-shirts, showed off some of the latest DivX Certified gadgets, and met a lot of awesome DivX enthusiasts. We had so much fun that we are attending and sponsoring the next event in Chicago. If you live in the Chicago area (or you are close enough to drive there), then head on over to the Gallery 2433 on May 12th.
DivX will be there with the latest DivX gadgets, including a DivX Plus HD Blu-ray player from Philips that plays MKV files. We will also be showing people how quick and easy it is to transfer your Internet movies to any DivX Certified device with the new DivX Plus Player. Did we mention we’ll have DivX t-shirts and free DivX Pro Software? You can find all of the details and a map of the location after the break.

Our gdgt Live and SXSW Recap

Buddy Cop Films
Warner Bro’s latest movie “Cop Out” is hitting theaters today (Feb 26th). This film is about two NYPD partners played by badass Bruce Willis and not-so-badass Tracy Morgan. The unlikely combination of these two “partners against crime” sets this movie up to be a perfect addition to a long line of buddy cop movies.

The entire movie is a throwback and a tribute to many of the great buddy cop films that pioneered the genre. We’ve compiled a list of some of our favorites that you can download and purchase right now in DivX format. Before you watch “Cop Out” in the theaters, get in the mood by watching one of your favorite buddy cop dramas…or maybe you’ll find that we listed a few you’ve never watched before.
