Movies?

were talking about movies, and being stuck with a particular player that a large portion of users don't like just to support a ok codec doesn't seem that great an idea to me.

It's cool that these days you usually get to choose from real, MP and QT. I actually find both MP and Real are more reliable than QT on my pc, allthough to be honest I don't like either of those all that much.

I'd prefer something like DIVX and dirac sounds interesting too. At the end of the day anything that requires you to download extra software is a bit of a problem, and with indie games your initial download size is a pretty big deal too.

not sure what video formats are standard and viewable on all players without having to download and install extras.
