FF:AC versions

what's the different b/w the two FF:AC on the torrent page?
the Xvid one and the other one.

One is H264 and the other is Xvid version. Both have the ac3 audio.

H.264 is generally supposed to be better quality at the same filesize. I haven't verified this personally, but that's what I'm told.

However, I'd bet nobody who'd ask that question can play h.264 right now, so if you want to avoid a headache, you might aim for the xvid version (which is also damned nice) instead.

I personally dident notice any difference between the two, I have kept the xvid version to convert to mp4.

Its true. H. 264 has better quality. If you havnt downloaded yet then I suggest you go for that version.

H264 is also very CPU intensive. I'd really advise not downloading H264 high-quality encodes unless you're running above a 2.4Ghz Intel or comparable AMD processor.
