I don't remember making a decision regarding the capitalization of
xvid. I routinely use the capitalization "XviD" since it's the
capitalization of the logo before some of the xvid folks tried to turn
xvid into a company product.
After doing a quick Google search, it looks to me that people use both
capitalization, with a certain tentency for people who don't know xvid
so well to capitalize it "Xvid", while xvid-nerds, like what you'd see
on doom9 forum ( http://forum.doom9.org/forumdisplay.php?f=52 ) whould
spell it XviD.

All in all, I don't care which capitalization is used, I just prefer
it to be consistent.
