I'm making a video in premier 7 pro. I'm using the xvid codec to export. whenever i export tho, i get these freezing squares and it looks like crap. i've tried doing the things that i saw in the guides (deinterlaceing made it look worse). what is this and how can i fix it?

You must have missed the parts where the guides tell you not to export in xvid.

The point isn't that XviD is better than DivX, the point is that you should not be exporting from Premiere using <i>any</i> lossy codec.

You should be exporting in HuffYUV and converting that to a distributable format with XviD in <a href="http://virtualdubmod.sourceforge.net">VirtualDubMod</a>, not going straight to XviD from Premiere.

lol, i dunno what all that is you're saying, but i figured it out. i resorted to DL'ing virtualDub, exporting full digi video and full wav audio from premier, and using virtualDUb to slap em together and compress in xvid.

i had to use only a 300kb/s bitrate because i needed to keep the file size low. it looks good at 400 tho. just with 300, it gets a bit pixelated when the action speeds up.

checkie, i'm satisfied for a first video. it's a quick DL.

that kinda sucks that a 600 dollar program can't export nicely.

ripoff *snickers*

Premiere wasn't designed to work with l33t hax0r-made tools. It exports just fine to 'standard' codecs. Of course, 'standard' codecs suck for online distributions like the .org....too dang big, mostly.
