According to this article on Slashdot... http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/27/1626241&mode=thread&tid=155 ...Fraunhofer started to ask for a license fee not only for encoders, but also for decoders. I wonder what are the effects of this on the DivX format. If i understand things correctly, this should be one more reason to accelerate the switch to Ogg for the sound stream in DivX. Of course, there are multiple compatibility issues: between different codecs, between different players/encoders, between old software and new movies, etc. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
