    But true. 8) The dat can be converted to mpg of approximately the same size, and then encoded to DivX which would probably half the size.

    I just ran a test and converted a dat of 738MB to DivX 5 at the same resolution and of comparable quality. It came to 472MB. I reckon I could get it quite a lot smaller without sacrificing quality if I used the extra features of DivX 5 Pro.

    OK. I finally got it down to 368MB without a noticeable loss of quality using DivX 5.02 Pro with GMC, b-frames and quarter pixel settings.
