I'm producing a new Windows CE device and I need MP3 player, JPEG viewer and
DVD/DivX player.

Are there free good programs?

MP3 and JPEG come out of the box. DVD is mostly there but you'll need
hardware/software CSS decode to read a DVD and that is not available free
(at least not legally anyway). No DivX support that I'm aware of.

Excuse me, could you explain to me exactly what you mean for MP3 and
JPEG/GIF? Are you says you can set to include MP3, GIF, JPEG and so on..
visualizer/player by PB? F.Y.I. I need something like you can find inside a
great car navigation system device, that is an interface extended to all the
screen with play/stop/pause/etc (for MP3, and for JPEG/GIF, too..).

I think so, too.

Isn't DivX/XviD/MPEG... player?

The OS has all the decoders for JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP.. There is an
ImageViewer application that is an additional license, however it's pretty
easy to create one of your own as well using the imaging libraries. Windows
Media player is available as an OCX you can embed in your app or use as a
standalone app on it's own. There is no support for DivX. As I recall the
underlying compression is MPEG4 but the actual file format is proprietary
and not supported by CE. It does however support other MPEG formats and WMV.
ALL of what is supported is documented in the online help. You should check
there for specifics of what you are after. Many in car nav systems do use
Windows CE as the OS as well as many media player devices. (Portable Media
Center devices like the Giga Beat are using Windows CE)

Very good, but I can't contact the author. Can you?
