XviD 1.0 final

[AlienDB7]

This is sort of off topic, but the XviD 1.0 (no more betas) has been released today and can be downloaded from http://koepi.roeder.goe.net/xvid.shtml

Will test it later today to see how much better it is.

[PATo355]

Cool man , i wonder which things are better now :D

[yg60m]

Thank you :wink: now give us the guide to make your such well encoded videos with so few size :wink: :lol:

[mcduck]

nice, thanks for the heads up.. guess I will be using this from now on then :)

[stracing]

so what are the results?
a lot better?
slight noticeable difference?
not necessary?

i'm just worried it will further fuck up my codecs if i test it myself

Same here. ...whistles while waiting for the Guinea pigs to return the results.... :twisted: :D

I just upgraded from XviD 1.0 RC4 to 1.0 final and it seems to work fine. Haven't encounter any problem so far.

Will post some caps encoded with XviD 1.0 in a few hours.

[TT]

Despite beeing very conservative, I installed it yesterday.. all works fine (as it did before)

I just installed the XviD-Dec-1.0-Beta3 for viewing the building the ultimate racing car (hosted by danv6), and after installing it, I tried to watch the latest 5th gear episode and... OMG, what the....!!! the movie had green ghosts in the upper mid-screen. And it was doing it with all my vids except the ultimate racing car. I uninstalled it, but the ghosts kept appearing. So I went to have lunch, a little angry for that, and after an hour or so, only DL a gigantic homework, the green ghosts dissapeared.
Hope you don't have these problems.

Goto XviD decoder configuration and uncheck the DIVX, DX50 and mp4v checkboxes. Try other settings as well. XviD has problem decoding some other codec. The 1.0 final fixed some compatibility issues according to the release notes.

bit the bullet and installed it and i'm glad to report all seems fine for me to :D . BTW what programs can you use to encode in xvid? i only use dr divx at the moment

virtualdub :)

you serious- i use it at the moment to shrink files and cut out adverts but only has the option for divx 4 i guess i need to update :lol: *hits google*

Update-*Kicks self* the option was there all the time :roll: can't believe i missed it, i'll give it a try for my next recording!! :D

[layz19]

well.. I should say virtualdub isn't the only one of course, many programs that encode avi files will have the same options to choose which codec you want to use, but I use vdub a lot :)

only thing is how do you get from vob files to avi, vitual dub can't do that can it? thats why i use dr divx for that

[outrageusly]

theres a few similar programs to dr divx that do a decent job, and they allow any codec, or of course you could do it the hard way and use gordianknot

I'll give a you copy of what I have used if you're interested

As always from top gear some really nice camera angles :D 8)

Great result, are these pics taken from the encoded file ? Then what do you use to capture them ?

And , finally, which encoder do you use ?

[Anonymous]

i used virtual dub to encode the file using the xvid codec and captured the screen grabs using BS player all you do is press P . I had to play around with the settings for a while in virtual dub to get the quality right but its just a sliding scale so just trial and error for me really.
i was really suprised at the quality especially given my original recording wasn't that good- i had to remove noise from it in TMPGEnc as i had bad tv reception on sunday :(

BTW congrats thats 2000 posts!!!! :D :D 8)

[yg60m]

BTW congrats thats 2000 posts!!!!
