I don't think I am finding the video quality better with DIVXrec (or DIVX4rec) compared to mp1e but the resulting filesize is sure smaller. Usually by half at the same bitrate, although that does not make much sense. The CPU usage is definately higher with DIVX[4]rec than mp1e plus avi files are not seekable until they are closed so timeshifting with the NVrec DIVX*rec tools is not possible. b. -- Brian J. Murrell
