Hi,

If you need any php/db stuff done I could do that. The problem would be
to do a script to probe the clips and fill the db?

table clips
{id, name, container, codec_gfx, codec_snd, ...}

containers
{container, link to melansons wiki, ffmpeg/mplayer status, ...}

...the same for the codecs...

I'd prefer Postgres (8) if the info is to be put into a db. Php5.1 is 
preferable
too as it has bind variables in the pg interface.

Best regards,
Marcus
