QPel with XviD

Currently No.

XviD does support QPEL even though it is not turned on by default. You have to manually turn it on (if you feel it helps with your material). Also XviD encoder dialog settings are not accessible via AutoGK (there is a way, but complicated) because then it becomes no different from GordianKnot and defeats the purpose of being an automated tool. Atm, the drawbacks of QPEL are more processor power to decode QPEL-encoded content (minor issue) and limited standalone support (major issue). AutoGK strives a lot towards standalone support by having ESS & MTK/Sigma profiles, disabling packed bitstream, using VBV (if instructed), using standalone compatible matrices (when instructed) etc. If AutoGK enables QPEL, then it will break standalone compatibility for about 90% of the standalones. When there is a wider hardware support for QPEL, len0x might implement it.

My LG uses a MTK chip & it plays QPEL without a problem. The reason I would like to see QPEL support is because IMO it gives the picture a nice effect. I can understand AutoGK choosing the best XviD arguments for for the size or quality chosen but QPEL seems to be different. I think it should be selectable in the advanced features & if necessary only available in non-hardware modes :)

Talking about MTK compatibility, did you happen to notice this in the hidden options yet? As for QPEL in AutoGK, I don't mind it being there or not, either way. It is len0x's call actually. Whether he thinks it is actually worth the extra coding to make it user-selectable or not (like how the 'Cartoon mode' is user-selectable now). It is definitely possible.

Moved to development.

hmm. sounds like he doesn't have any plans for such feature. Pretty obviously, he doesn't want to do it. Almost all users of AutoGK don't want/prefer it either, b/c it's mainly for standalones.

i for one wouldnt want it as a default option simply because my Divx player doesnt support qpel and therefor it would be pretty pointless in converting a movie into qpel. Now if more upgraded divx are compatible with qpel then maybe till later i wouldnt mind having it as a profile to select from as long as its not the default profile. n i await divx6 support.
