Video compression: DivX vs Xvid vs WMV

[LÎnkinPärkExtreme]

:lol: Don't mind me guys, I'm only making conversation

Well... I only have 1 word to say to this... My vote goes for Xvid, much much better then DivX and way way better then stupid WMV "Windows Media Video"

So again... What do you guys think? lol

 

[Jeezy]

I like WMV...

 

[Mad4lp]

WMV simple and good XD

 

[LÎnkinPärkExtreme]

Are you being serious??? LOL! WMV is gota be the worse video compression I've ever seen... Why do you guys like it so much lol ?

 

[UnhingedMouse0]

I know Im not fond of WMV at all, but Im not sure which of the other two is better... hmm...

 

[Scotty B]

divX all the way

 

[RabidSnyyper]

WMV coz I haven't heard of Xvid or DivX haha...

Well, I have only used DivX and WMV, havent used Xvid.

Someone should do a comparison.

Get one uncompressed AVI file and convert it to DivX, WMV and Xvid with the same settings, and see which provides best quality and/or lowest file size.

Well Xvid is based on DivX but is open source and has a bigger community then DivX does. WMV... Is only really good if you want to record something off your webcam, but then again (Xvid - DivX: .avi files) are more supported on various platforms and some DVD drives

I like DivX....though it can screw itself up sometimes while trying to combine the video and mp3

 

[Peterdea]

DIVX is best for me since its more common for me to find divx and i can watch them on my dvd player.

but i dont mind any file types realy

Xvid but .VOB and .ISO own

 

[LÎnkinPärkExtreme]

Xvid but .VOB and .ISO own

.VOB Is an Mpeg 2 Video *Most of the time* and .ISO is a image file not a video file :no:

 

[FireHawk]

I know but .ISO rocks how I emulate everything Image File about the same as Video file anyway (unless you wanna get technical but you can .ISO are kinda like image files)

Example of ISO as an Image File: You can burn DVDs as an ISO and be able to use you menus with no compressions (assuming the .ISO fits on a DVD 5 disk or you are using a DVD 9 disk)

I am not a big fan of anything compressed audio or video

Yeah I do a lot of video editing I know Just download the .ISO uncompressed and burn it to disk which is the really simple. I'm a big fan of Xvid because it's the best compression out in the world today.
