Currently, we have 4 recommended video players, each to their own strength:
FastVideoDS - Use if you want the fastest FPS
Moonshell - Use if you want the fastest FPS you could get on a flashcard and don't have a CPU capable of compiling FVDS files
MPEG4Player - Use for short videos on the DSi if you don't have a CPU capable of compiling FVDS files
XVID - Use if you want longer videos on the DSi and can't compile FVDS files.
I think the above covers every aspect of video playing. However, there's a fifth entry on the list: RocketVideoPlayer.
From the list I've outlined above, it doesn't have any advantages. In fact, the only thing I see this being different is a disadvantage: A bigger file size because it's uncompressed.
Potentially, you could come and tell me that this is to get longer videos at a better frame-rate than XVID. Unfortunately, from what I remember, this doesn't do well with longer videos, with de-synchronization issues.
RVID aint an extinct format; TWiLight currently uses it. However, it should just be reserved for small 10-second videos and not anything longer, which unfortunately may very well be the message we're giving off when recommending it.
