PSP is like the innocent do good that gets stuck in jail and PSCS3 is like the huge (_insert race_) guy that rapes it and beats it up and calls it shirley.

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 :-P :-P

I know but .ISO rocks how I emulate everything :p 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 :-P 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. :)
