Did a search here, and looked on my encoder options (using Koepi's 1.1.0-Beta1-16012005):

1.) Is it possible to save your favorite XviD encoder settings? I do not see GUI options to do so - possibly a x.ini?

2.) I have both XviD and ffdshow-20041012 installed. How can I designate to only use ffdshow filters to decode (while retaining the ability to use XviD to encode). If they are both installed, which one(s) will do the decoding? Obviously I do not want to uninstall XviD.

ffdshow should take over if it's set to decode the XviD stream. See the settings.

Tnx, Boulder-

So you think you can tell if theres any way to save XviD encode settings? I'm up against a wall here.

The settings are stored in the Windows Registry.
Go to the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\XviD
and export its content to a .REG file.

Then, double-clicking on this .REG file will register these settings...

@vocoder

- your files are quite outdated. afaik, latest xvid is 050803 (~1.1b3), latest ffdshow is 050909.

- there are 3 ways of using ffdshow as decoder for xvid (set it up in ffdshow - codecs - xvid ) :
-- disable -> decoder : xvid / pp : xvid (so, no usage of ffdshow)
-- libavcodec -> decoder : libav (ffdshow) / pp : ffdshow
-- xvid -> decoder : xvid / pp : ffdshow

if i get u right, u need the second way. i prefer the third but it's up to u ;)

btw, u can save your ffdshow setting too w/'export settings' or directly from the registry

the bests
