appleguru points to this screenshot which claims to be a prerelease version of DiVA and an upcoming 3ivx codec update.

appleguru details some of the new features depicted:

The leaked photo from DiVA 1.0 suggests that 3ivx 4.1 will contain 2-Pass encoding, and that DiVA 1.0 will have an Auto-2 pass function which will allow for unattended 2-pass encoding.

Other improvements such as the ability to save compression settings, and to specify a "Credits" section (A section of the encoded file to have it's quality lowered) also seem to be present.

The screenshot also appears to be reaching an impressive encoding rate of 72.6 frames per second (reportedly on a G5)

It's all true... 3ivx gets better all the time! Go Stux!

Video encoded in 2-Pass looks amazing.

Stux has been pretty elaborate on what new features one can expect in 4.1. Check it out in the 3ivx forums

For instance, an encoder for multichannel AAC is in the works, for those who wondered what happened to it in QuickTime...

As long as it finally makes it look as good as 2-pass XviD, I'll use it. Otherwise, still don't care.
