There's been talk to use MNG, which is basically motion PNG,
and is supposed to be a nice lossless codec. I'm personally
going to be working with Ogg video soon, so I'll check it out,
but the (nontrivial) AVI codecs are pretty well rooted as Windows
drivers (except maybe thunking to the Windows dll -- I've heard
that xmps (sourceforge.net/projects/xmps) can do that, but let's
not mess in that area for a long time please).
