[Coco] Video Format?

[jdaggett at gate.net]

*.mp3 is mpeg 3 format and is an audio compresion format that is 
seldom used for video. 

*.mpg and *.avi are the more common. If I remember mpg uses 
mpeg v1 and is the more common used for mpg compression on 
pcs. There is mpeg2 and Mpeg4 but Mpeg4 is somewhat 
propriatary.

While*.rm and  its variants from Real Media is out there, they have 
lost some ground as Real Media for a while made it realdifficult to 
find and download their free player. 

Personally I would stay with a format that will play on MS Media 
Player and compatible players. That would be avi or mpg.

just my thought
