Thanks. wmv ....

Looks like  Matroksa is the way to go ?
or maybe ogm.

Wikipedia seems to imply mkv has gain some sort of advantage over ogm


Question i suppose how easy is it for windows media player to play these 
things.  I have mplayer at home on my linux boxes, but when I put stuff on the 
web (grandparents viewing video of the grandchildren), they have windows and 
windows media player 

There is some implication that x264 (seems to be my favoured codec for now), 
has problems with the avi container (but the ffdshow filters work around it )


Thanks
Alex
