Which is better Xvid or DivX?

Though DivX lags behind compared to Xvid, they have the general advantage of being a lot more stable and they are also accepted as the standard especially in hardware that’s capable of playing this format. When encoding video with Xvid, you can still create material that can be played in most set-top DivX players.
