Mpeg-4 or Quicktime-7 or... ? for maximum Browser compatibility?
by rdomalpalli on Aug 26, 2007 at 11:23:51 am

Hi All,

I have a website that I people from different countries visit, and I was wondering what Format to encode in, so that I would get the maximum compatibility.

I have seen that H.264 in Quicktime 7 is the Best. But I am concerned that not everyone will have Quicktime 7. So, I have 2 questions..

1. Does anyone know what percentage of users will be able to view Quicktime 7 Compatibile footage?
2. I believe that Windows users will be able to view Mpeg-4 footage (Please correct me if I'm wrong here). Would you recommend that I put both files (Mpeg-4 and Quicktime-7), and call the first Windows and the other Quicktime-7?

Thanks in advance for your response.

Regards,
Rajnesh
