Ok. I've tried few good codecs to find out which is better for HDTV movies distribution. I've tried codecs on 720p movies and clips only.
With DivX and WMV9 video is terrible. I've lost all HDTV sharpness with these codecs. VP6 and Xvid are much better, but if you'll encode very good quality movie, you'll loose HDTV quality too.
VP7 and AVC gives perfect video quality. Really perfect (colors sharpness, details). But these codecs need too good CPUs. I don't tried on Intel CPUs yet, but video has drop frames when I watch video with Nero ShowTime on my Athlon FX-55.
So my question is - how I can make AVC and VP7 movies go faster? Should I turn off all postprocessing (how)? Or, should I install some 3rd party decoders? Or should I encode with some different way?
