qpel seems to make the video stutter. Missed documentation in English, especially about the advanced features.

I used high 2-pass, high quality, trellis and 4 motion vectors and that gave me really good results. And it's is really fast.

It seems to work fine, and it's really fast. The only problem I had was that the AAC audio setting does not "stick", so I cannot create a QT compatible file. Thanks for making it free. ;)

Amazing... Am I dreaming or isn't it the fastest xvid and h264 encoder? Making divx or h264 movies from DV or .mov files can't be easier. Output quality looks excellent.

"dv stands for "Digital Video" geniuses. It is the pure form of video uncompressed. "

Well... actually:

"The sampled video is compressed using a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), the same sort of compression used in motion-JPEG. However, DV's DCT allows for more local optimization (of quantizing tables) within the frame than do JPEG compressors, allowing for higher quality at the nominal 5:1 compression factor than a JPEG frame would show"

I told him: "Just have a try: "Command SHIFT 3", so we will see, what you have done ;-))".
Seem kind of non-professional....

It would help a LOT if you defined whatr a .dv file is. I have NO CLUE, and either do the friends that I asked.

If you don't know what a .dv file is you probably don't need this software.

FYI, .dv is the native format that video editing programs like iMovie use.

You're on the internet reading about this program. You come across a file type you don't know of. And you go to two friends to see if they know what it is? YOU'RE ALREADY ON THE INFORMATION SUPER HIGHWAY! LOOK IT UP!
