I'm choosing a video codec for storing of my family videos (and sharing some of them in the Inernet as well) which format provides the best compression? I don't care about processor time and the quality should be avarage or just below (I have a cheap cam)

a. x246 (which is h.264 implementation) would be my recommendation for quality, it is possible to encode (mp4) in sort of quicktime compatible way, you will just need to tell ppl to install qt then, and add some server mime types for mp4 (video/quicktime qt mov mp4).
b. Another option is flash video, using vp6 video codec, quality is not on par with x264, but it should be supported better on the web (has better 'penetration'), there are free flash players which can be used for embeding on the page. pretty cool solution for vp6 encoding: http://sh0dan.blogspot.com/2006/09/command...v-encoding.html This post has been edited by smok3: Apr 20 2007, 20:25 -------------------- PANIC: CPU 1: Cache Error (unrecoverable - dcache data) Eframe = 0x90000000208cf3b8
