AVI Video Jogging

Name: Goop 2006-12-11 0:13

Are there any other programs besides quicktime that easily allow you to jog between frames of a movie?  Especially with the arrow keys.  Quicktime doesn't support enough codecs and I'd like to study some animation on a frame by frame basis.  Quicktime hates a lot of codecs.  (XVID etc) 

Any good apps that make it easy?

Parboiled failures.  MOV/MP4 sits between MKV and OGM.  AVI can't even interleave more than a single video and a single audio stream.  No text (so no embedded softsubs), no other additional streams, sloppy editing and cueing, etc.  WMV is codec-bound and ASF is DRM-friendly, as in both being FAR WORSE than MOV.  OGM is stream-limited (multiple streams of predetermined types, not extensible).  As for MKV, I would hope it would be as robust as it is, since it was modeled after MOV/MP4 in terms of functionality, ignoring strict DRM.

Again, MOV was doing simultaneous video stream + multiple selectable audio stream + 3D model stream + text stream (+ LOL midi stream and LOL image stream) back in 1993.

Codecs for lil' pirates?  Don't let Ogg politics cloud your judgment.  Right now:
H.264 > Theora
AC3 (ripped, non-transcoded multichannel) > Vorbis multichannel > AAC multichannel > LAME MP3 (stereo/DPL only) > *

Okay, I'll be explicit about it, then.  From my experience, for end-user functionality within supported/available players and editing tools:
MKV > MOV/MP4 > OGM > DIVX (hahaha) > WMV/ASF > RM/RMVB > AVI

After adjusting ranks with DRM, codec/platform restrictions, ubiquity in the piracy scene, and available workarounds (like external softsubs for AVI) under consideration in Windows:
MKV > OGM > AVI > MOV/MP4 > WMV/ASF > RM/RMVB > DIVX (HAHAHAHA)

For supported playback on standalones (DVD, PMP):
MOV/MP4 (MP4 is THE current trend) > AVI > WMV/ASF > DIVX (pretty good support, but almost useless because everything does AVI too) > RM/RMVB >>>>> OGM > MKV
