DivX player recommendations?

I'm looking for a nice lightweight divx player. It should allow me to set global video contrast/brightness level (so that it would not be neccessary to change this each time a movie is played like it's done in WMP10) and use little cpu compared to WMP10 (my CPU is pretty old). Any recommendations?

Best you can get is VLC:

Fantastic piece of software (but they could do with a nicer GUI).

Hm, weird, I tried it and it makes some divx movies stutter while WMP10 plays themm just right.

Divx has a player of its own:

Oh.... Look into Zoomplayer. It can play almost anything and seems pretty light weight.
