Hello everyone,
I'm attempting to convert HD videos to Xvid/AVI using MeGUI, with a target resolution of 720x480. I aim to achieve good video quality while maintaining a reasonable conversion speed. I have a few questions about optimal settings:
Motion Search Precision: The program defaults is 6 - High Quality. Should I reduce this setting to speed up the conversion? What would be recommended settings to maintain good quality?
Resize Filter: Considering the default use of Lanczos, would using Bicubic (Neutral) as the resize filter be a suitable alternative for a resolution of 720x480?
Other Recommended Settings: Are there other crucial settings I should take into consideration to optimize video quality and speed up conversion at 720x480?
I appreciate any advice and experiences you can share regarding this conversion process. Thanks in advance for the help!

Xvid, as MPEG4-ASP codec, takes so little efforts, it will be much faster than x264 or even x265 and AV1 in any realistic setup.
MSP: Leave it at 6, there is no reason to go lower.
Quality preset: You can enable VHQ limited or medium search range and HVS metric for slightly better quality. In a 2-pass encoding to reach a desired target size, enable "Turbo" for the 1st pass (only).
Resize: Lanczos is an algorithm with a sharpening side effect which may cause more ringing artifacts; I would recommend a neutral bicubic filter, or alternatively Spline16, for downscaling.
