The best way is to encode as MPEG-1 at pretty much any bit rate you like.
This guarantees compatibility cross-platform. PC wise, any Windows machine
with media player (any ver) installed will be able to play it. Most CD-ROM
productions that any media company (including mine) will use MPEG-1 for
compatibility.
However, it's not the best in terms of quality (far from it) - but any
other codec you use will normally have to be installed/downloaded.

I've been asked to convert a 6 min VHS video (short promo) to an AVI
file so a friend can give copies to friends on a CD.
I can encode using FlaskMpeg but what is the best codec to use so that a
bog standard PC will be able to play back without downloading additional
codecs?
TIA
Don
