Hello,Actually, thinking about it, promoting VideoLAN would be a good way promoting Ogg Theora. SoEveryone should promote VideoLAN and link to: http://getVideoLAN.com/
(Kind of like to getfirefox.com and getfireant.com links.)Just need some nice buttons and banner ads to link to it.See ya
Hello Harold,Just another point (that I forgot to mention before). If you want to support Ogg Theora video, but are worried that browsers won't support it, you could always use the Free and open source applet that plays it. You can get more info here:
Hello,If you implement the MPEG4 standard then you have to pay someone a tax to use it. Specifically, you have to pay these guys:

Hello,Or you could suggest to your uses that they install VideoLAN -- http://www.videolan.org/(VideoLan supports playing Ogg Theora, as well as almost every other video format.)
(There actually already seems to be quite a large install base for this already. So there's probably more people who
Good to know. I think I'm using VideoLan on my Mac at home. I think. (I may just be using VLC right now; I forget.)

Yes, that was it; thanks. Do you know if VideoLAN Client is planning on continuing to support Windows Media formatsin its Mac client, even though Microsoft is discontinuing it own support for Apple's platform? Just wondering if you know...

Hello Harold,Short answer... VideoLAN will continue to support it.Long answer... I don't see why they would remove support for Windows Media formats on the Mac. They have no reason to remove it. It's probably more work to remove it. And keeping it there is in line with their goals. (Which seems
I believe that they are. I think the intent of VLC is to be a good all
around video player that can play all known and available formats. I
don't know if they've fully achieved this but they've done pretty well.
As far as your original question goes, there isn't a good answer.
There isn't one

Regarding 3ivx, does anyone know if you can't do quick start/fast

3ivx creates mp4 with AAC that's compatible with quicktime 6 7, iPod
and I suspect also the PSP player. It also looks quite good with dual

Hello,I think the only way to really make all (or most) browsers support one standard video format is to force them.Basically, we do this by making a single video format the
defacto standard. In other words, all of us vloggers just start using one video format, and eventually, the browser
Charles,
This is the first I've heard of Ogg Theora, and I am *into* open
source; that is, I run Linux on a PC and on an old Powerbook at home,
though I can't say I use it every day (or even every week or month,
for that matter). I have my doubts that Ogg Theora will become the de

I wish to also add that this is very exciting news to me, learning
about Ogg Theora. I'll definitely keep this in mind; but right now,

Hello,Currently, I don't think there is one defacto standard video format. There's a whole set of formats that are currently being used:MPEGWMVQuickTime (.mov)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't MPEG4 an open source format? Or is
that open standard? (Or both?)
