Leigh Blackhall (http://leighblackall.blogspot.com) blogs usefully about Video formats (and many other things besides). For Audio, mp3 has been the obvious option for years, but I always found Video quite confusing. Leigh does a better job than I could on explaining the main formats you should use. The only thing I would add to his post is to note the general drift towards Apple and iTunes U, and suggest you check out their detailed specifics on the mpeg-4 format in their guidelines here, if you are getting into Video. Again, I came upon Leigh 's blog via the indispensible Stephen Downes on OLDaily.
Video is a huge subject, and I'll blog a fair bit more about it later. I've have really come to it recently, and have had the pleasure of making all the usual mistakes and learning things the hard way. Alas, If it's worth learning, it's worth learning the hard way.
