New DivX H.264 decoder in private beta test

I'm happy to report that after downloading the beta and doing a couple of quick tests I can already see an improvement over ffdshow. I can't personally compare it to CoreAVC since I don't own that decoder. Hopefully I'll have more to report in the near future.

THE REALLY BIG QUESTION WILL IT WORK WITH MEDIA CENTER WITHOUT CASHING IT !!!

PS Sorry for all the caps i felt it need it :)

I can't speak for Media Center since I stopped using it a few months ago, but it definitely works with SageTV. I've been able to playback files with CABAC on my ancient HTPC (P4 2.8HT) for the first time ever. I'm currently in the process of testing at higher bitrates to see if I can start using CABAC for all my encoding.

That really inresting, ffdshows ok, but tweaks for one movie are going to hog cpu for others its a pain.

Hry vurbal, where u get a copy ive used my divx beta login but cant find a download for toffee :(

You should find it just a short ways down on the main project page (http://labs.divx.com/ProjectRemoulade). Just look at the end of DigitAl56K's top update (for beta 2).

Always good to try something new and different. Everybody on the internet though is complaining about working with AVCHD, which is H.264!
The hardware players are DivX;-) compatible. So is PS3!
With AVIAddXsubs I can mux subtitles into the DivX files and turn them on and of in my PS3.
I have the best tool available which is VirtualDub were I can do everything with DivX;-)
DivX;-) can be very fast compressed and the colours exceed what I have been able to achieve in H.264.
It's not about compression. It is about compression speed!!! It is about not needing Dual Zeon or Quad core computers to do compression. It sis about resonable compression! Store media and internet connections get bigger and bigger.
DivX;-) is the right degree of compression H.264 is too hard!
DivX;-) offers 720p in 3000 kbts!! What I want is an option for adding sound track to a video compression and adding subtitle mux like AVIAddXsubs in the DivX;-) Converter-that would be news-drop H.264 it is awfull to work with!
