Technical Requirements
Accepted Media and File Formats

To make the submission process more uniform, we only accept 
contributions on data CD or data DVD. Videos may be submitted in any 
file format that can be played back with a standard installation of 
QuickTime 7. QuickTime supports a number of industry standard media and 
file formats, so you do not necessarily need QuickTime to produce or 
encode the files you are submitting. However, please test and make sure 
that your files play back on a standard installation (=no additional 
plugins or extensions required) of QuickTime 7 under Windows or Mac OS.

The QuickTime 7 player software is available as a free download from the 
QuickTime website which also carries a list of all audio and video 
formats supported by QuickTime 7:

     * QuickTime 7 Player download page
     * Formats supported by QuickTime 7

Maybe I am not pragmatic enough and what QT offers is at least more 
familiar than the Microsoft and Real stuff, but isnt that extremly 
boring anyway? Think further! ;-)

There are "a number of industry standard media" called MPEG and tons of 
players for those "industry standard media". Linux, FreeBSD etc..., all 
excluded?

There is no established "One Click MPEG Streaming" standard yet, all we 
have are Apples proprietary "One Click Streaming" solutions, but please 
offer download or whatever for people who dont have Quicktime onboard.

Updated with some remarks on Googles text/google-video-pointer.

Whatever some do with Flash.

Anyway, the streams themselves are nothing compared with the UI, that is 
vendor and platform independent or not.
