Dark Shikari,

Thank you for the thread link.

1. Wrong forum.

2. Check out this thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=136826), which is already discussing that topic.

3. Snow and Dirac, OBMC+DWT codecs.

4. H.265.

5. H.264 is not strictly X% better than MPEG-2. It depends on source, bitrate, etc.
