heh?

ffdivx is ffmpegs ms mpeg4 v3 flavour codec, it decodes this mpeg4 
modification, as ffmpeg4 decodes iso mpeg4 (and not-so-iso divx4/5), aswell 
there are implementations for like ffwmv1, ffmp42 and ffmp41 for the 
respective data (Windows Media Video 7, M$ mpeg4 v2, M$ mpeg4 v1), but where 
are the filters now? Of course all those codecs share some common code, but 
there are no filters involved and what's proprietary here? (besides the fact 
that ffmpeg decodes and encodes those proprietary formats)

IMHO you put to much stuff into the fileformat specs that really belong into 
the player/codec and nowhere else.
