Nice. Now, for the next question. Is there something like this (Other than all the wonderful tutorials the forum's members have posted, that is) for VIDEO? General video, that is? Not product specific.

Hi wcoxe1,

In fact, I do not have the answer you want until now... But, I have a cool book suggestion about video compression.

Title: Compression for Great Digital Video - Power Tips, Techiniques, & Common Sense
Author: Ben Waggoner
CMP books (http://www.cmpbooks.com)

I´m reading it... It´s really useful.

Ben's book is very useful, but also filled with a lot of mathematical theory vs real-world techniques. He's dubbed himself the world's greatest compressionist, but then eschews most of the Windows compression tools. So, while it's a great book, and should be on every compressionist's shelf, don't hang your hat on it, IMO.
