Just to clarify, there are two different Dirac implementations, and two different theora decoder implementations. But otherwise your points stand. There are many implementations of the mpeg codecs. I'm not sure how many separate implementations ther are of the Windows Media codecs. FFMPEG has a VC-1 implementation and some decoders for older formats based on reverse-engineering. -r
