Does anyone know what settings in the settings box under xvid are best for clear video.
I have a 6 second long hd size video.
Thanks all

Blender doesn’t allow very high bitrates in its presets of encoder.

Have you read the wiki? http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Rking/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Output/Video

Thanks
How would I email the person writing that page?
And his aspect ratio column makes no sense!
1920 x 1080 sure aint 1:1 !
I find it all needlessly confusing!

The 1:1 is the aspect ratio of the pixel, not the image.

Pixel Aspect Ratio

Older TV screens do not have the square pixels which Computer monitors have; their pixels are somewhat rectangular, so it is necessary to generate pre-distorted images which will look bad on a computer but which will display nicely on a TV set. It is important that you use the correct pixel aspect ratio when rendering to prevent re-sampling, resulting in lowered image quality.

thanks for the clarification.
