why we would want to stretch it to play something with such quality limitations where you can have much better quality using other codes
I think u see where I pointing

I think, you misunderstood something there. It has CRAZY GOOD quality, even with
an average filesize for a Family Guy or The Big Bang Theory episode like 30 MB.

The other codecs are crap regarding filesize/quality when it comes to comparison. A
350 MB HEVC version of Big Hero 6 looks way better than its opponent on 600 or
even 900 MB.

But again ... I am not talking about those examples used on the website posted by
Exnor (elecard or so), just the stuff used in the scene. I have no clue how they are
coding it, but that is why I found/posted that filehosting link.

Ah, well, now I see your point, Rikardo. You mean with quality limitation the probable
720p or 480p maxium ... but I (and so many more, I guess) would be happy, even if
it works only with the 480p material. That looks soooo brilliant, too. =)
