I like smaller file sizes so I encode at 220 for Video and 80 audio and I use 2 pass to improve the action scenes. 2 pass of course doubles encoding time. Secondly your audio lag comment reminded me of the other reason for encoding in Divx and using TCPMP. Going that route cleared up my audio probs.

thanks for the reply akretsch. so it sounds like the time is about right for this application. i'll have to try 220 and test the quality against my 400kbps.
lastly, i wanted to point out that my audio issues were in fact divx and using tcpmp. there is a noticeable lag on these .avi files i made using the divx method and dvd catylst.
any other comments?
