The development team is happy to announce the immediate availability of XviD 1.0.0 release. Though this version number is purely symbolic, it's still an important step, and the "xvid-team" hopes you'll enjoy all the efforts that have been put in this 1.0 numbered version. Thanks to all users who: reported bugs, sent patches and helped us improve XviD up to an 1.0 quality level.

Happy encoding and stay tuned for improvements in upcoming releases.

Changes since 1.0.0 RC4 (Hola):

    * xvidcore

          o minor bug in trellis quantification optimization.

          o speedup for vhq>1 & qpel modes (motion search was done twice, one in SAD mode and one in RD mode)

          o Fixed MV clipping with non valid DivX 5 based sequences.

          o Fixed RGB 16 bit C functions.

          o Fixed posible VOL header corruption for fps=1 encodes.

          o DC misprediction caused by bad value clipping (bug forwarded to the ffmpeg project too).

whats the difference between xvid and divx besides the fact that its divx spelled backwards?

Xvid is open source/free. In my experience, it has a slightly (there isn't much of a difference between any of the mpeg-4 codecs) better video quality than DivX. It also encodes much quicker. I thought it was just me, but according to Doom9, DivX 5.1 can take five times longer than Xvid to encode the same file. You have to pay to encode in DivX too (the "free" version has spyware/adware).
