                        | Better than Xvid. VFW version is unreal! The desktop shots look beautiful. Does jaggies from time to time, but 90% of the time I can't see jaggies at 313 kbps.

                        | The best codec. Earlier i used to use Xvid for iPod videos.Now i use H264 for encoding.A bit slow
 than Xvid but quality is much superior. 2-Pass H264 gives the best quality by any codec.

                        | should be the best codec now
 compressibility is almost the best with a good avs and setting
 color and visual quality can be tweaked with using a CQM and suitable setting
 compatibility won't be a problem because of its advantages and source opening
 de-blocking filter should be turned on forever because it helps increasing the compressibility and the only thing to do is to adjust it(from -3 to 3, or from -6 to 6 with ultra-low btirate)
 speed is slow without doubt, but it should and it must bt slow
 this codec is for next generational encoding
 its speed won't be a problem
 (in fact, it isn't so slow if not encoding a 720p stuff or something similar)

                        | Slow as hell, even on the fastest machines! And that is the only problem I can think of. Other than that, the best codec out there, even at this stage.

                        | Too much "co", not enough "dec".
 
 I'm no video geek - all I want is to get my machine to stop telling me it can't play these vids. This doesn't do that, or if it does I can't figure out how.

                        | ATM, x264 does bit any other codec i've tested... Compressibility = 5, bitrate control at 2-pass encodings = 5, encoding speed = 3.

                        | better quality than any other codec i've used, however the de-blocking filter gives many features a smeared appearance and should be turned off at any bit-rate. the codec default is to use de-blocking during encoding, the first thing you should do after installing is turn that feature off or adjust the strength and threshold to a level that doesn't make your video look like putty.

                        | I don't agree
 it's a good one h.264 codec and it's free
 gave me better contrast than XviD in reencoding some old videos
