- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Very good video output, although some color saturation is lost. Unlike MPEG Streamclip, DiVA doesn't seem to drop frames in the output movie. The missing audio support is a fairly big drawback, requiring a fairly complicated procedure to extract and encode the audio (using other applications) then add it back to the video in Quicktime Player. Not ideal and no guarantee that the movie will remain compatible with future versions of Quicktime. Also wish it had an inverse telecine feature.<br> Unfortunately, it's been two years since 1.0 and it doesn't look like 3ivx will be updating this application either with or without the promised audio support.
DiVA Does What It Is Supposed To Do. Better.

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Awesome compression and numerous options. A lot of work obviously went into this application and it shows. Compression is excellent, allowing clear pictures without substituting size. Some complain that it does not convert audio. Call me simple but I want an newsreader for my news, a music player for my music and a video compressor just for my video. When authors get swiss army knife on applications they lose focus on improving what is important. A queue option would still be greatly appreciated in future versions, and without a queue it is greatly hindered. Nonetheless, overall great software, and after going through numerous other software compression programs this is one of the few that actually works.
Congratulation for this milestone

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Greetings and a bow to the programmer. I am getting way faster than realtime encoding with 3ivx on a Dual Gig MDD Mac. Arround 38fps and this keep rectangular pixel thingy (cant remember the exact name) is a blow. How is it possible that QT AND many other Players are able to identify such a file correctly and shows it not squeeshed? Doing this with Openshavi (or soemthing similar) is doing this only in Quicktime, other players do not respect it. What i dont like is the "finished" sound, I would prefer a orchestral one, maybe a musican could compose one for the Diva :D Wishlist: AAC encoding DV input coffee making
