That is indeed a very interesting find, thanks for sharing. :)

It does however only cover the AVI format.

The ones you should look at from this page are
- uncompressed (for comparison)
- MotionJPG
- H.263 / MPEG-4
- NTSC DV (did they cover that?)

The ones you should know about in MOV format are:
- MotionJPG (also called M-JPG)
- Photo-JPG
- DV / DVCPRO
