XviD is a video codec just like DivX.
Most new movies and videos are being encoded with XviD.

The XviD Codec is needed to play movies encoded by XviD.
XviD is better than DivX.

Here are some key features of "Koepi XviD":

· I, P Frame encoding, PMVFast and EPZS with diamond and square pattern motion estimation, inter4v mode, fullpixell and halfpixel, precision, both MPEG4 and H263 quantizations, custom quant matrices, Adaptive quantization / Luminance masking.
· XviD is a continuation of Project Mayo and aims to develope a high quality open-source MPEG-4 codec.
· As you may already know, XviD comes from the same open-source project that was the basis for DivX 4.x/5.x, but instead of going all commercial, XviD remains open-source. The quality of the codec is extremely good, and encoding speed is very fast as well, so itll commercial, Xvh a try.
