Doing this type of encoding doesn't require "special hardware" or any other bullshit ("If you can't persuade them with substance, dazzle 'em with bullshit" - right SoBe?). Not all MPEG-1 encoders are equal, just like not all MP3 encoders are equal. Compare lame to old xing encoders and you will see a huge difference in quality at identical bitrates. Same thing with MPEG-4. There are already a ton of MPEG-4 compliant encoders that can all be played by any MPEG-4 decoder. These encoders vary in encoding quality by large margins.

In short, you want better MPEG-1? License a quality MPEG-1 encoder, like the one Sorenson produces instead of using the one MS ships with windows and you too can make "Super Turbo Mega Hydro Mpegs". Also, use MP3 audio (not PCM / WAV) and VBR encoding and you will get quality per bit as good or better than the video posted by SoBe.

Good article on compression SoBe - it's just like sausage - Yum!
