Anybody noticed that even the latest version of MPEG2AVI (very fast DVD decoder) cannot use DivX 5.1 (and also some lower versions) multipass processing in the best YV12 mode? In slower RGB mode everything works, but in YV12 (and also YUY2) no usable first-pass log file is created, and even if it is the program reports some strange "cannot set AVI format" error at the start of the second pass. Any hints for solution? Thanks.

Yeah, it's a pity. MPEG2AVI beats the ass out of FlasKMPEG, XMPEG and such.

Hopefully PX3 will release a DivX 5.1 compliant version soon. If you grok German, check this out:

I think I'll stick with DivX 5.0.5 oldskool 2-pass mode for now.
