:thumbsup

aww thanks :)

now comon i need an idea so i can encode some stuff lol

hell i will even post some samples on here if its a must lol

bump.

its a must

lol then what is the best codec to encode?

Windows Media.

-Excellent Compression
-Good Quality

what file wmv??

yes, wmv . use 8.0 so your members won't have problems with codecs

Windows Media Encoder 7

what about mac based users?

fuckem :)

I agree!

mpg.. but then you increase your file size by a factor of about 3 - 4 for the same quality.

you can do mpg at about 1.5 megs for 10 seconds.

divx.com still does it for us, not streaming but cool quality

yeah and when your mac users chargeback dont bitch

what makes you think he runs websites?

With wmv 7.x close to anybody will be able to watch the videos, even mac users. For 8.0 there is no mac version available as far as I am aware of and I do not know if the new 9 version (wich is brilliant) will be already available for other systems than win 2000 and win xp. I only know that the old 95 and 98SE users have big problems with the new 9 version of wmv

MPEGI everybody can use, but the file sizes are huge if you do close to VCD quality (1150kbits)
At the moment the wmv codec is the best selection (in my opinion) which could be watched by close to 96% of all users
