MeGUI is definitely my choice.....but as I don't have one, will be using "main concept", just outta curiosity what happens if you install the amvapps while working on a project? :shock:

The main issue is with dgindex. Newer versions are not backwards compatable with older versions, so once you install a new version, you can't access your .d2v files unless you remake them.

I have native h264 capability on my mac; so I just use that. Seems to work just fine for me.

I do have x264 and MeGUI on my PC, but they're usually unnecessary.

If you want something that's better quality than Xvid and widely supported, look no further than H.284. QuickTime 7 supports MPEG-4 AVC, and since QT is bundled with iTunes, almost everyone on the face of the planet (except foobar fags) have AVC support. Apple really did us encoders a favor with that move. Now we're just waiting on High Profile support in QuickTime and we'll be golden (and that should come as soon as Blu-ray drives in Macs, which could be as soon as WWDC on Monday.)

Thank goodness, I was scared for a second there.
And God spoke unto the Chicken, and He said: "Thou shalt crosseth the road", and the Chicken did cross the road, and there was much rejoicing.
