Is divx the best compression and quality? I am looking to convert mpeg2 to some format that can be uploaded to google video or something that retains good quality. ---

[quote=“ILCisDEAD,post:2,topic:25146"”] so you want a size/quality type thing? [/quote] yeah…mpeg2 files are large. 1 minute is like 150mb. I would liek to shrink to like 20-40mb and keep quality. ---
