Okay, just a little help with the svcd/xvid/divx issue. These files in the SVCD format are done for the asian black market where it is up there with the digital versatile disc and sometimes preferred, you can read up on this on the net regarding the asian home entertainment market, as a trade off many of our dvd players are also able to play svcds, so it's not such a bad thing (burn the image and watch the film on your tv).
Xvid is an open source MPEG4 codec, MPEG4 was originally designed as a possible codec for dvd but was turned down in favour for the more stable mpeg2 (moving pictures expert group)but due to it's powerful compression rate it's use for the internet grew to what it is now.
We also have other codecs which are being developed that compress the data even more for the use in psp's and portable harddisk video units. Phillips is also developing a compression tool/codec as featured in the What video magazine.
Interesting thought, although turned down MPEG4 is now becoming common place on the new generation DVD players
Now to the film, I watched it on friday, then watched it at home on Sunday. To make a film of this quality in Two days with no sync problems is very impressive, full marks to MAVERN.
