for divx/h.264 there is no good throughout support over all sorts of applications.
also mpeg2 is easily being 'reformatted' for DVD-Player compatible DVD-Video-Discs.
divx and h.264 will need re-encoding.

After do some more reading and thinking about it, I definitely do agree that going to MPEG2 is probably the best approach. Now, I'm in a bit of a quandary on how to go about that. The
MPEG2 Encoder Test thread was very informative regarding my options. Everybody seems to really like ProCoder. However, $200 is a little more than I was wanting to spend. I have no doubt that it is a quality tool but much of it's functionality would be lost on me. I thought I had found the perfect solution at $60 in ProCoder Express (
this review was great) but alas, that isn't sold anymore and the functionality has been integrated into ProCoder 3.
I will be taking a look at the tools listed
here and elsewhere to see what I can come up with.
