Just install MediaInfo, point it to your movies directory, then switch it to sheet view. You can customize the columns as you see fit.

I have mediainfo on osx, but I just can open a single file, not an entire directory...

So for 2009-2011 VC-1 does 109 titles and MPEG4-AVC (h.264) does 291 titles for that timeframe.

MPEG2 only has 13 titles or so released over the years.
That makes it an interesting 3/4 ratio for MPEG4-AVC and 1/4 ratio for VC-1.
Wonder where it will go....

Your numbers are a bit skewed, why don't we make it fair and compare all region a releases, for all studios, for all time, grouped by codec?
MPEG-2: 292 releases, or 11%
MPEG-4 AVC: 1625 releases, or 62%
VC-1: 706 releases, or 27%
That's a bit more accurate, AVC is DEMOLISHING the other two format. Sadly though, they must all be treated equally if you want to have consistent playback ability when dealing with Hardware assisted decoding.

Thanks for the numbers guys.
I really hope so see VC-1 support with Apple's VDADecoder, but I can't think of a reason why Apple would do it.
As long as official Blu-ray support is a no on the Mac there's no reason for them to code it, I guess.

Ah....didn't have time for it to figure it out how to get those numbers...
Thanks for doing it bro !
