Video codecs - What is used the most?
 

What video codecs are most widely used these days? What do you encode in?

What is primarily out there right now (old / new content)?

ummmmmmmmmmmm

divx still and HD wmv

Most of our clients now encode in h.264 but some still stick to the old school 3. wmv, 1 mpg and ipod.

h.264 kinda solves the need to use those other formats.

forget WMV,

divx or xvid for the lower res stuff and 264 stuff for the 720p or better. For playback locally I use MKV but for streaming flash does it better than WMV

H.264 is going to be the standard, if not already.

if you want to use macs and quick time it does....

h.264 for full rez and mov for smaller sized vids

mostly xvid

Interesting... Seems you guys liked what I showed you before I left... Wait till you see what I have up my sleeve...

Actually no, h.264 plays with flash streaming server using a standard FLV player :)

wmv9?

just trying to get an idea :thumbsup

Yeah WMV 9 for the most part.

thanks guys, this helps :)
