eMoviX is a small Linux distribution, similar to Knoppix, that, when booted will automatically start playing all the video files stored in the root directory. eMoviX only occupies about 8 megabytes of space of the CD/DVD leaving the rest for video files. The video is played by MPlayer, a popular open source movie player. eMoviX supports all the video formats that MPlayer does; this includes DivX, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, WMV and RealVideo, among others. Subtitles are also supported. eMoviX will boot on computers that support x86 and have at least 36 megabytes of RAM.

Creating an eMoviX CD/DVD can be done with software such as MoviXMaker-2 or K3b.
