I did not expect anything, just noticed something.

For the moment I will keep with 264. Especially because these files
are only played once. Just wanted to make sure I was not overlooking
something.


By the way: when searching on the internet, I saw often said that 265
would be half as big as 264, but I see 'only' a third less space
taken. Are the people saying 50% overly optimistic, or do I just have
'strange' videos?
