@De-M-oN:
I noticed a whole lot of talking on letsplayforum.de about the codec. Thanks for the promotion

First of all, I see some very good feedback coming in, but also some things to reflect on:

Predict Left is not necessarily the fastest option (to the contrary of common knowledge) especially when we also consider decoding speed. I wrote about it here why is that so: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...69#post1668769
When compressing to YUV, the Full range YUV option should be turned off. Programs usually expect YUV to be limited range.
While encoding is also optimized to be fast, but decoding speed should show even bigger speed difference when compared to other codecs.
The decompression setting "Set Avisynth compatible" button only adjusts the checkboxes above it, nothing else. But by default, it is already set up that way, so there is no need to press it. What it basically does is to prevent conversion to YV24 from sub-sampled colorspaces.

That's some I thought about quickly. But feel free to report/ask if something doesn't work as expected.

Greets,
I.
