>If your test was to compare an intraframe between vp8 / baseline h264 / and Theora, you would have concluded Theora was the best by a wide margin.
But it wasn't. I was comparing the visual quality of the whole video, and provided the full encoded clips for people to download and compare for that reason.
I am willing to do further test encodes, but have no interest in doing something like encoding all 28 HD test clips available on derf's test clip page[1], since as a purely visual comparison, especially with the actual encodes, it would be incredibly exhausting.
EDIT: I added a notice about the downsides of single clip comparison to the top of the post.
