I thought MPEG could be played on Mac, Windows, and Linux with
existing built-in tools but Rev needed QuickTime. Perhaps I'm wrong
about that.
Here is an interesting blog about the multi-media:

One of the products I manage uses a lot of video, and while we've
been happy with using QT for playback some of our customers' IT
departments really hate the extra install.
So we're looking to move away from dependence on QT, hoping to find
a format that will run with the default installation of XP, Vista,
and OS X. Extra bonus points if we could also support Win2k, but
not necessary.
WMV compresses well with good quality, but requires the user to
download and install Flip4Mac.
MPEG-4 would be good, but doesn't appear to be supported in XP (am
I missing something with that?).
MPEG-2 would probably be good, but we'd have to buy a separate
component from Apple just to try out the export.
MPEG-1 might even be worth looking at, but I can't find any export
for it in QT Player Pro, only for MPEG-4.
So am I stuck with AVI, or is there some trick to getting MP4
playable on XP?
