I agree, they do all seem to be Sorensen now, because it can be very well
compressed with very good quality (it was developed to do the Star Wars
trailer), when saving movies in Adobe Premiere, Sorensen seems to be the
best choice from my tests. Takes fair CPU poke though.

I was thinking about finding the codec library or whatever on the PC and
attempting some reverse-engineering on it to extract the C++ code for
Sorensen, DivX, Indeo etc. Does anyone know how easy/hard this would be? Is
it even possible?
