factors to consider)

I feel a bit of a fool. I was talking to somebody about vlogging
and they were raving to me about the quality and compression of DivX.
I don't know anything about DivX. I don't feel that much wiser after
reading up about it on Wikipedia, DivX.com etc
I don't know any vloggers who use it,

Relative to the other thread nearby on DivX that asks why vloggers don't use

I remembered Steve Chen, co-founder and CTO at YouTube, posting on

He first posted in May 2005, talking
Apparently, Windows Media Player comes ready to play DivX. So that's
a big chunk right there. So - again - if it's so amazing and popular
as a compression format, why aren't more of us using it and having
DivX feeds/links?
I agree, Jan, I'm also too lazy to convert to wmv and it bothers
I've bought it and love it, clarity and very small file sizes, as

Just a minor thing - if you're REALLY thinking about camping, make sure

I like the idea of tracts of events, speaking as someone who does go
to a lot of conventions (ok, they are comic, sci-fi and Pop culture
cons but still a con's a con) a week is to longpeople have
vacations, family, money considerations just to name a few. Most
conventions are held over
That was a well-done piece. Congrats.

Aha! So this is what I was after. Your MOV or MP4 files are

Slightly on the subject, I use Adobe Premier 1.5 and I don't see H.264 as an
option. I see H.262 and H.263, but no H.264. I have considered upgrading
to 2.0, will that give me H.264 as an option?

If for some reason you werent happy with either the process or the
results of your current choice of video encoding, or if you had

Historically when talking about divx files, they were .avi files and
the actual compression was mpeg4 of their own blend. I believe the
audio was mp3, dont know if they have changed that now, may be a

Oops I keep typo-ing the word DivX, their file format is .divx not the

Here is more general waffle from me about file formats, where we are

h264 was the last great technical leap in video quality/encoding
issues, and the last 2 years have been a
Interoperability is also not about downplaying the significance of

Cheers, yeah thats the other way to handle the mess that I have
