The difference will primarily be seen in downsizing of source footage (especially reduction by greater than 50%).. For example, if you are using 720x480 source (like DV) and saving to 320x240, it will _sometimes_ yield better results. However, if you are using a lot of BIG still images like 2048x1536 (3.3 Megapixel cameras) then the resize to 320x240 will likely look better

Best is slower than Good though... and not all source footage will look better when rendered as Best. But it's there if you need it.

Thanks,
