I've been using tmpgenc for a couple of years now...and have found that for some reason...lately quality has just not been what i'd like it to be. Quality of the output is more important to me than speed, though a bit faster would be better. I do like Tmpgenc abliity to batch encode and would hate to lose it..but again..video quality is king with me. Can anyone give me an opinion on Mediostream Xtream mpeg encoder...or anyof the other products they have listed?

I've been using Adobe premiere elements and Studio 9 for editing etc...have a p4 3.0 with 1024mb of ram.

Thanks in advance!!
