Comments on: MPEG-2 Not Dead Yet http://www.c10n.info/archives/299 All about the most recent compression techniques, algorithms, patents, products, tools and events.

Digigami's flagship product contains some (admittedly cool) tools to compare side-by-side before and after shots, view bitrate graphs, etc. so you can interactively tweak the compression. It is not a fully-automatic process. Another thing not obvious is that their current flagship products are only available for Mac and won't be ported to Windows any time soon.
