43 Some people asked why don't we use ActiveMovie/DirectShow codecs. The reason is
44 simple: we'd have to emulate the whole DirectX architecture and implement the
45 (patented!) COM interface to be able to use them. BTW the old VfW DivX codec
46 is faster than the new .AX version, but it has no quality/CPU setting
47 option (this is an improper name, since it doesn't affect the decoder. If
48 it's set to 1 or higher, it applies a filter which decreases blockiness and
49 eats away CPU cycles).
