Easy questions. I am confused

I am something confused...

I Know than MEncoder is a encoder for MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video.

Mencoder is also a front-end of libavcodec library.

MEncoderME is a GUI of MEncoder.

But...

What is really QuEnc?

What is ffmpeg? is another encoder?

What is ffvfw? It is a codec?


Thanks.

They all have one in common.

All using libavcodec library as core.

MEncoder, QuEnc and FFMPEG are based on this core. All going a different way. The most swiches in FFMPEG and MEncoder are similar, but the way you have to write it into a bat-file is different.

QuEnc is in my eyes the best encoder based on libav, cos nic uses newer sources and added some new features.

FFVFW it's like a codec. FFVFW uses a VFW-App to get a GUI for it. So you can use for example Virtualdub to create a MPEG-File. VD creates a dummy avi and the output-mpeg is been set in the ffvfw-settings.
