I recommend and have used one system for years - CoreCodec for H264 ("Deblocking" set to "Standard") and part of DivX7 for AAC. Both are proved perfect, fastest and provide seamless playback up to 1080p on new generation of computers. Newer NVIDIA graphic cards processors (GPU) decode H264 using dedicated subroutines directly served from CoreCodec (I have an ATI card, just in case you were wondering). Problems one can have may come from either one of the following and/or a combination of these – the playback system itself, a malfunctioning device or lack of knowledge. For instance, any so called "jerky" playback of "system-heavy" 720p comes from insufficient CPU and graphic engine power or simply - overloaded computer. Use of ddshow filters and "codecs" is suicidal. This is not Russian 720p Matroska format ("official" 720p) and completely different setup is required (extremely high bit-rates of .mkv 720p to some extent "hide" bad encoding style). In low bit-rate H264, such as mine, those errors and bad technique cannot be hidden and therefore are avoided as much as possible. Any 'blurriness' of video comes from less-than-recommended media player. VLC and a few other players are the most versatile and, generally speaking, good - but quality is 10-20% lower. Any ‘blockiness’ comes from 'system-too-slow' situation, when decoding engine of ones device become over-capacitated and cannot process all frames as it supposed to. On "I have no video" and "I have no sound" I don't waste my time as this is generally a complete lack of knowledge and/or understanding. RTFM is the best response I can give. MP4 is absolutely ISO 14496-1 compliant. There are no B-frames, no CABAC entropy in 272p and 360p, no strange filtering and no AV weirdness of any kind. Recommended resolution for computers is 1024x768 (no matter frame-size). PS3 + HDMI cable + newer TV have been reported as best combination. I am very proud on sound quality and hence I recommend use of stereo system and proper loudspeakers (connect Line Out of Soundcard or standalones with Line In of any Stereo rack). I encode H264 for six years and I have experienced (first-hand) any problem one might have or imagine. I have heard almost every ‘complaint’ out there and would, if asked POLITELY, be happy to answer questions and give as much help as humanly possible I always have.

@Stev: First, big Thanks for most comprehensive list I've seen so far.
Let hope that someone will find the way to kill it. Maybe someone work on new, cleaned firmware for PS3 and maybe (not me, because, as I said, I cannot verify a thing) wold be able to remove Cinavia from audio-signal. I have pretty good picture how they did it and it would be very tough job. But, someone would, sooner or later. Just another round in Cat&mouse game...

@JoSox: You asked for Tudors, but Tudors were on the vacation. They are back next Sunday and would be here next Monday. But, Timothy was in the town and agreed to be encoded. Justified finale next week is a deal too. Should it be 720p 350 MB or 272p tell me whenever you like.
