Pinnicale Studi Plus 9 with Divx CODEC

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

I just bought the upgrade from Studio 8 to Stuio 9 Plus mainly because
I want to be able to pan my stills. I think this is a really neat
feature.

I just noticed that my new DVD player can handle Divx encoded DVD's. I
also just noticed Pinnacle has a new Divx CODEC for sale that will
supposedly allow Studio Plus 9 to create videos in the Divx compression
vs the MPEG-2.

Is anyone doing this? How has it been?

Someone told me that by using Divx I can get 4 hours on a DVD (or two
movies lets say) and the playback quality is still pretty good.

I know right now in the BEST rendering mode, I can get an hour on a
DVD+R blank. What would I get if I were using Divx fopr compression?

Pinnacle MP4 works fine. A 1 GB MPG2 file will compress to 280MB MP4 AVI.

Do you mean BEST as in Quality or BEST as in most compressed?

Because I routinly get 2Hr ~15min. on a DVD+R. And that's with menus and
such.

Am I doing something I shouldn't? I need these DVD's to be compatible with
my customers players so I don't want to do anything that might be
incompatible.
