is AVC really that good?

Ok, i did a small test on the usual spiderman 2 trailer. Encoding was done thru: AVS + recode and AVS + virtualdubmod. The AVS script is 3 lines long: Code:

VP6 strength is mostly based on it's postprocessing filter. You should always have it on.

i prefer AVC

AVC is "generally" more detailed but there are artifacts everywhere... Ok, what settings you suggest for deblocking? @ Leo69: so VP6 has no B-Frames and no inloop deblocking etc... should i disable those in AVC? Your comment has no sense at all. VP6 relays on PP since it is part of the codec... It is a COder-DECoder...

It's how vp6 works. PP is adaptive. I already tried with auto smooth... no good... Trying with deblocking strength = 4.

Ok, you're right, i will correct my statement: "We saw the current AVC implementation isn't able to...". I'm not trying to bash AVC. I just want to understand what are the limits of this codec and where it can be improved. (actually i add artificial noise thru FFDShow to make it look more like the original... maybe adding some PP to AVC decoder won't hurt?)
