@George Thanks for the hint. I'll include it in the post when I have time to go over it. mencoder is something I've personally never tried, but it's always worth having a second option.

MediaCoder is an awesome alternative to SUPER and offers an INCREDIBLE amount of options for encoding videos. For quite a few common formats, there is an option to choose the encoder to use, so if for example ffmpeg doesn't quite produce the results you're looking for, you can switch to, say, mencoder.

It's a shame you didn't include MeGUI. It's awesome. In the past, I've done countless benchmarks and tests with x264 and video algorithms on top of Avisynth.

It may not be the most actively developed thing ever, but it does a perfect job, and it's free.

I tend to use CCCP over klite as far as codecs go. In addition, if you’re running intel video adaptors, and windows 7 or vista, there’s a really good built in h264 codec which you can use with MPC – I used the set up guide here http://imouto.my/watching-h264-videos-using-dxva-clearvideo-version/ to set it up
