Comment (by stuartm):

 Nigel, since format was intended to be used as a statetype, it should be
 the following instead:

 {{{
 <statetype name="videocodec">
     <state name="MPEG2">
         <textarea name="description">
             <area>10,10,100,30</area>
             <value>MPEG-2</value>
         </textarea>
     </state>
     <state name="H.264" from="MPEG2">
         <textarea name="description">
             <value>MPEG-2</value>
         </textarea>
     </state>
     <!-- Etc. -->
 </statetype>
 }}}

 As you can imagine that's slightly more work for the themer, although many
 would probably just cut/paste, from another theme. The benefits are
 numerous, e.g. you can mix images (icons), text, shapes etc to represent
 each codec.

 Mark

 [25889] contains an error, the values return by GetEncodingType() are
 being translated when they shouldn't be.
