Try reading the guides before posting a question like this.

I know a guy that can help you

This guy is called Doom9 (http://doom9.org)

This guy has spent lots of time writing guides (http://doom9.org/guides.htm)

Do him a favor and read these guides

DivX is MPEG4, so look in the guide section again under DivX.

ahhh, thank you, what you said was so much more helpful, and took so much less time than the post of the bozo above you.

Just out of spite, if you look on the guides DivX page:

DivX Encoding

There's two kinds of DivX codec now: DivX3.x which is the more well known and has been around for a while. It's also known as DivX ;-) and is basically a hacked version of Microsoft's MPEG-4 v3 codec. The other DivX codec is DivX4, by DivXnetworks, a completely new codec which delivers the same quality but is a fully legitimate solution and offers 2 pass VBR encoding out of the box.

Oh yeah.. MPEG4 :rolleyes:.

well, seeing as I was looking for Mpeg-4... Why would I look under DivX in the first place?

Sorry iammeuru, I didn't know that you're such a sensitive boy !

Sorry again, but if you cannot stand some sarcasm you should better point a .45 at your head and pull the trigger since the world is full of "bozos" and sarcastic a**holes like me !

But make sure you read some guides on suicide before performing it !



Oooops, I did it again ! :)
