Title: Video re-encoding for Xbox
Post by: pank2002 on April 24, 2009, 02:26:39 am

Hello,
I have a bunch of old DIV3 (DivX 3) files that I would like to "update" to DivX 5 or Xvid. I have never done any serious video encoding before. I need to play back the files on my Xbox but it only works with DivX 5 or newer.
I have tried a couple of softwares but there are so many options. All I want is to somehow change the format with as little quality loss as possible. I prefer Xvid but I guess a newer version of DivX would be as good.

I tried to update the fourcc code but the xbox was not able to play it back.

Does anybody have any experience with this kind of stuff?

Thanks,
Rasmus

Rasmus,
Did you try the doom9 forum?

Hey,
No I did not try Doom9, but it is a good idea. I haven't gotten a user-name there, though, and there is a lot of smart people here as well :-).

I tried the Super (C) program but I could not get it to proper files. . .

i think is better re-downloading your stuff on the codec you want, you avoid re encode and loss of quality =D
