Some stuff. *READ!!!*

I'm currently writing down a lot of info relating to video compression, codecs, formats, don't go all ??!?!? if a thread pops up and then disappears or gets edited or whatever.

At the moment I'm planning (threads, I suppose)

General explanation of codecs/containers.
More advanced terms related to codecs/containers.
Expressions used in relation to movies, frames/par/dar/interlaced/fps/whatever.
Encoding guides using meGUI, premiere and vegas, profiles for megui (both xvid and x264) for download & easy use.
Common Programs and what they're good for.
A thread with whatever tutorials we have had posted here - they're not many but they deserve to be seen (x-booze has done a few neat ones)

-more to be added as it appears in my head..

If I get my will through we can also consolidate the old stickies into one (similar to what they've done on the class forums at wow-europe), for cleanliness.

This will hopefully clear up a lot of confusion and reduce the amount of questions that need be asked.

Eventual suggestions in this thread or by PM, please.
