The video decoder is used for the actual codecs: Sorensen Spark, VP6 and H264. You almost never hear those names though, because video file types are named after container types. In the end you need both. I'm not sure however if Apple has Spark or VP6 codecs, since they're only used by Flash afaik. FFmpeg has decoders for them at least.
