I'm a professional graphic designer and animator and I have to say Kyle is right.

Open any animation of editing software and look at your output module settings.

Using adobe After Effects as an example; first choose your output format (ie. QUICKTIME, pict sequence, jpeg sequence, PhotoShop sequence, mp3, Animated GIF etc...) Then you choose video output format option (ie CODEC or Compressor Decompressor) here you can choose from any CODEC you have on your machine (ie. Animation, Cinepak, Avid Meridian, Targa Cine YUV, Graphics, Motion JPEG A or B etc...) You just need to know whatever CODEC you use is on the machine that the movie will be played on, so use one that comes with QuickTime basic. So if I render something with Targa Cine YUV and sent it to you you won't ne able to play it unless you download the CODEC from pinnacle or you have a Cinewave board.

Questions, Comments, Concerns???
