Is it 720p or 480p @60fps or 30fps?

If you use a good denoiser, QPel can help 480p encodes. Avoid the old AQ.... grab a new xvidcore.dll and use the new VAQ if u need to.
I seem to have read somewhere for best standalone player compatibility, we should use max one consecutive B-frame with "Packed Bitstream" on. If it is a newer player supporting 2 max cons. B-frame, turn off "Packed Bitstream". QPel + 2-max-cons-B saves over 10% bitrate (for more movie details).

max key-frame interval is still 10*fps. But for 60fps encodes I think we may reduce it to 5~7*fps.

H263 with new VAQ offers the best standalone player compatibility and it encodes fastest too. If u want more details, u can use EQM-v2 or EQM-HR-v3-SAP-mod. Make sure that u do have sufficient bitrate because VAQ makes them more prone to blocks and rings for frame peepers. (Actually, H263+VAQ tends to give running textures @ insufficient bitrates too.)
