An ogg media container is very different to an avi - you need particular software to create it and it will not be very compatible with other systems.

I wouldn't recommend ogg media containers for amvs. People complain enough about codecs that aren't mpeg or divx.

Unfortunately, most new audio codecs don't work well with the avi container... so you are kinda screwed.

AVI is old and crap and microsoft aren't willing to change it - they just want to create new containers for their new codecs alone, which sucks. Ogg Media containers, matroska and the like are very good things but the compatibility at the moment is limited.

as far as I am concerned, as long as I can get the vid to work on my comp then I'll use whatever codec or container is best. and as far as distributing vids is concerned, I think that anyone using anything other than MPEG - 2 should tell people EXACTLY was codec they are using, and where to get it.
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

Hrm... it doesn't actually install any Real codecs, just a hacked WMP6.4 which is able to play RealVideo files.

uhm.. mpc isnt hacked its gabset's own media player which is modeled after wmp 6.4 except with a lot of better features. RealMedia support is included but only works if you have realone installed already, but that pack is supposed to allow mpc to playback real content without having realone installed.

So, what you're saying is, that assuming we ALREADY have a Real Player... we can play rm files? >_< = confusion.

Media Player Classic is a stand alone player that can play real media but real player needs to be installed. The link above is to an executable that attempts to circumvent this requirement.
