MPEG 1 (.mpg) or a Quicktime (.mov or .qt) with the Cinepak codec should be small and playable everywhere.

[i]Opening video decoder: [ffmpeg] FFmpeg's libavcodec codec family
Selected video codec: [ffodivx] vfm:ffmpeg (FFmpeg MPEG-4)[/i]

Should work on every platform FFmpeg works on. And that's a [i]lot[/i] including IRIX, Windows, Linux, and (all?) the Unices. No problem.

MPEG 4 functions in mplayer etc but SGI's normal media player can't play it, and especially not very well...

I'd really recomment mpeg1, as most systems can play it real time, if quality isn't the highest concern.
