I don't think they will change it to an mpeg-4 codec simply because a standard has not been set yet. It would dramatically increase the looks of the animations but some could be unreadable and therefore, unjudgeable. They also won't use divx as there are many versions floating around and the older versions were hacks of the microsoft mpeg-4 codec. I doubt FIRST or Autodesk would support that. One thing that could be usefull, but prolly not practical, would be a FIRST or Autodesk webserver/ftp where the team could upload their uncompressed full frame avi's. Most shools would have a fast enough connection to do this (those files would be 1gig+). Or possibly even dvd burning, or smaller frames, or.... the list could go on and on.
