 == The Best Codec of 2005 ==x264 won the best Codec of 2005 by doom9 where they had a shootout between many popular video codecs.  In their testing they found the following:FIRST PLACE: x264 (a free open source H.264 codec/encoder) - Tied with Ateme's encoder on two occasions, and surpassing its most fierce competitor in SPR. SECOND PLACE: Ateme's encoder left a good impression in the Matrix 3 test in the main round, sharing the first place with x264 in two tests. However, the results during night scene video shows that effectively it comes in second in the big picture.THIRD PLACE: XviD is the dominant ASP codec. It continues to surpass DivX in the tested movies.FOURTH PLACE: DivX 6.1 came in last in two out of three tests, and last tied with XviD in the third test. There's no doubt that DivX has made significant advancements and is getting closer to XviD, but it's still not there.  Soon it won't matter as XviD and DivX are both ASP codecs, and ASP will soon be outdated.* x264* Ateme* XviD* DivX
