Default DivX Pro Codec, Today Only

http://www.divx.com/dff/index.php



There's not much to say here: apparently once a year the Divx team offers their Divx Pro codec for free, and today is that day. Grab it while you can! Now if only they'd hurry up and release a fully Vista-compatible version...

Are there any good GUI-based encoders out there for x264?

I havn't done any encoding myself, I have no source of HD content. I just download alot of it from the net and watch it on my laptop.

Ah, a consumer, not a creator. ;-) You don't need HD content to encode, any content will do. :-)

true, but the best way to see the effectivness of 264 is befores its been touched by other compressions, and I havn't to much in clean sources.
