I tried encoding the same clip with Xvid.
The quality was as good as I expected, and my CPU usage during full-size playback was much less. However, and this might be because of the transcoding utility I used, encoding took a ridiculously long amount of time. I started the transcoding process in the evening, came back in the morning and it still wasn’t finished!
I will try installing a Xvid encoder in Wine and seeing if it gives good results and quick encoding.
Does anyone know of any other free-as-in-speech, non-patented video codecs?
