Subject: Re: [H] DiVX 6 Released
Why would you have to do that, Brian?
http://www.divx.com/divx/dmf.php
Right now everything I have is in Xvid, which I love. But there are
some nice things about Divx 6. It scales up to awesome quality
(comparable to Apple's H.264 some say) and awesome compression (even
smaller file sizes than Xvid).
But what really draws my attention is the built-in metadata tags,
chaptering, subtitles, multiple audio tracks, and menu structure. One
of the problems I currently find with my HTPC is library organization
and searching. I have to have every file in a specific naming
convention for the software (Meedio in my case) to be able to find and
play them. This gets pretty tedius. I think there is a way to add
metadata to regular avi files but as far as I know it is not really
part of the standard and I haven't gotten it to work very well.
Now, you're right that I don't HAVE to re-do everything. But it would
be nice to have everything in the best format :)
