HD video output needed for AVI container using gstreamer's xvid codec

Description
HD video quality is currently only created through the combination of the xvid codec with the matroska container.xvid needs to be offered as an option for encoding HD using the avi or mpeg4 containers, to be useful in the creation of playing video on a DVD, HD DVD or Bly-Ray player. Matroska (mkv) can't be read by any type of DVD player.Attempts at outputing HD quality with existing mpeg4 options within the avi container fail, because the codecs fromm ffmpeg are configure for non-HD resolution. Changing quantization from h263 to mpeg for better quality in the avi container, create a file that is only audio, no video.mpeg4 container had the same problem, inability to output hd quality video.
