Please advise which video formats will play on most Portable Video Players.

Thank you for the advice.mp4/h264
However this is not universally so.
It's not the case for Archos products.
It's not built into Archos Portable Video Players.
One has to purchase their "video & podcast plugin" to be able to play h264 video.
Until the new models appeared two years ago Achos players did not support h264. So anyone having one of their earlier players is not able to play h264 video.
So I wonder how many other manufacturers don't have h264 compatibility built-in. Plus which other manufacturers don't even support it.
