    Xvid to what with procoder? Xvid is highly compressed MPeg4 based, about as tight as you would ever want.

    i don't know if it says so or not, but when you get an video encoder option that allows you to choose xvid as the encoder, i presume you can choose that option

    I really wouldn't recommend MPEG encoders for encoding XviD or anything via VfW. It isn't what they were primarily designed for.

    If you want to convert wmv to an XviD avi, frameserve the wmv to VDub or use mencoder.
