Because they do NOT help compression ratio/quality!
on divx forum I read different oppinions. (_sigh_)... and be wise here...
RTFM.
where, please, where exactly
other reasons one may sometime want to use B frames, but IMHO they're best avoided.
what is side effect of Bframes?

As I understood b-frames, it makes the motion/bitrate-prediction better, because on that frames there will be looked forward and backward. The negative is that storing b-frames need more space as I-frames. So you will only have pros on fastmotion-scene-quality and size-prediction. At least b-frames have to work very well in the codec to get better results with that . The man of mplayer mention here not to use it since it is still buggy (at least the last time I RTFM ;o). If I'm totally wrong please flame me ;o) Greets Steffen
