Sorry about that. It is not in the manual.
It's on the box: "DIVX Certified". It's also on VideoHelp:

Notice that in neither instance is there mention of XviD. I had to ask
these Usenet forums if anyone knew that it played XviD and someone
replied in the affirmative - so I got the unit and thus far it has
played every XviD AVI I have fed it.
