Flix is by far the best, but it's $199. They do have a Standard Version that is only $39, but you get what you pay for... the standard version does not support two-pass encoding, so the quality won't be as good.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely try the demo versions of Flix, JohnRiv, first thing on Monday. I can't install Linux on my work machine to try FFMPEG, would that be something I could use while running a Linux distro from the cd?

JohnRiv, do you happen to know off the top of your head what the quality of the cheap version of Flix is like compared to YouTube?

FFMPEG doesnt come installed in the CD distro, so I think it will be difficult to try it out on your work machine. Otherwise you could try on your linux hosting server (if you have any).

Try RIVA FLV Encoder: http://www.rivavx.com/index.php?encoder&L=3

I've used it for doing a showreel for one of my clients - pretty decent.

To top that... It's free!
