Well, the encoder _did_ work. It just produced very bad quality
pictures. I assumed it was just a naff codec, and continued my
explorations elsewhere. (At the time I'd never heard of it before, so I
figured that was because it's not very good.)
I do recall spending 4 days trying to get a codec called "cinepak" to
work well - and when I mentioned it online, somebody said "OMG, do you
have *any idea* how ancient that thing is? Get rid of it!" I guess I
assumed that DivX must be similar, so I didn't spent too many hours
trying to fix it.
