So I am adding the ability for users to upload video to my site.
I'm converting all to FLV's using FFMPEG. Since i'm a complete n00b when it comes to video, I would like to know:
What are the most common file types I will need to handle? What format do most people with digital camcorders end up with? This last part might entail common outputs from camcorder-provided editing software and not just the raw output?
(also, my users are not the most technical savvy, so I don't expect any exotic transcoding to happen).
THANKS SO MUCH! I've had the worst time trying to figure this out.

wmv, mov, divx, xvid, avi are the most popular
most dig cams are DV
sure hope you have a server or two to handle all the uploads -
Any guesses as to the percentage % breakdown on prevalence of use?
