Officially released at CES 2009 today was DivX 7 - the latest version of one of the most popular video codecs you will ever come across. The biggest addition to the codec is the inclusion of a HD H.264 version which will play .mkv files. Past that there aren't really any new innovations that they've made - but I'd say the addition of HD is a big enough addition to warrant a new version number.
To coincide with it's release they've also redesigned the logo and their site. I think it's a positive step forward both for the codec, and for design of the site as it is now far more appealing. Only negative I can think of about the over-all design change is that the links in the top right corner are too dark and blend with the background too much.
