Convert DIVX to MP3

Understanding DIVX and MP3 file formats

DIVX is a popular video codec known for compressing lengthy video segments into small sizes while maintaining relatively high visual quality. Files encoded with DIVX typically have the .divx or .avi extension and contain both video and audio streams.

MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III) is a widely used audio format that compresses sound data, making it ideal for music and audio playback on various devices. MP3 files have the .mp3 extension and contain only audio data.
