Hey, I have a problem with this new codec. Recently new release groups have been releasing in mp4 or mkv using x264 or h264. I did a self test , by encoding a music video in x.264 codec in a avi container and had no issues playing back, no lag; however, a h.264 in avi did lag and so did a x.264 in mkv/mp4 lags but not in the avi. I do not understand the issue at all. Please help and/or is there a way to re-encode the h264/x264 in mp4/mkv to xvid avi or x.264 avi.

Perhaps you can explain what you mean by h.264? x264 (no period) is an h.264 encoder. Do you mean some other encoder?

High bitrate, high resolution, and high profile will each add lags, especially combined; AVC video requires a lot more processing power to watch for the same res and bitrate than xvid.

Ok, so how do i convert it to xvid avi format. I tired the following:
DirectShowSource("[K-F]_One_Piece_162_[AB178EF9].mp4", fps=23.976)

but it won't work I am using CCCP to decode and still the same. It just won't decode in a encoding application but when i play it in MPC, it plays back.
