This is odd because I don't have either of those two Mpeg-4 codecs showing
here and yet something did download to play that file at p.b.a.  Wonder why
I can't list it here?  I've restarted computer since then.  Well, I know
it's there anyhow.
I checked all my Avi codecs against each other once for quality and
filesize, unfortunately I didn't take note of the results, think it was
Indeo 5.* which came up best of what I had at the time (it's v. 5.06 now),
so like Peter says that might be good and others should typically have it
too.  Thing is, I don't know if a version change alone messes up backward
compatibility or not.  I also have the Indeo interactive codec which I never
use because it seems others don't usually have that at all.
It's not going to be a sure thing anyhow.
