| thanx dude... you were just faster than me... in fact, although Xvid is one of our disallaowed codecs here, we should spread the word...

Not at all. As long as you dont discuss about how to use the codec, means what settings etc. are the best to make your movies look nicer, i dont have a problem you are talking about the codec at all .... and lets see, maybe the whole mess with SIGMA will lead to a new situation where 'somebody' will pay the MPEG4 licenses for XviD team  .... |
