This is fantastic news! Thx for that patch, Dark Shikari. Now, there’s no chance you might get super-bored and port CRF to Xvid?
I did some tests with wizboy11’s binary and short clips (10000 frames) from five PAL DVDs.

Not much to say about visual quality. There’s hardly ever any significant difference between VAQ clips non-VAQ ones. And then only when comparing still frames. So ~10% smaller files without quality or speed drop. I think I might like that.
