You shouldn't need divx player. I can watch those videos even without win32-codecs or ubuntu-restricted-extras. I'm using firefox, totem (totem-gstreamer), totem-mozilla plugin, try installing those with synaptic.
If you have installed no-scripts add-on or something similar it might be blocking playback.
