Some are listed here: http://www.mp4ra.org/codecs.html

Also, the following examples are given here
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4281.txt :


   Content-Type: video/3gpp2; codecs="sevc, s263"
       (EVRC audio plus H.263 video)
   Content-Type: audio/3gpp; codecs=samr
       (AMR audio)
   Content-Type: video/3gpp; codecs="s263, samr"
       (H.263 video plus AMR audio)
   Content-Type: audio/3gpp2; codecs=mp4a.E1
       (13k audio)
   Content-Type: video/3gpp2; codecs="mp4v.20.9, mp4a.E1"

(MPEG-4 Visual Simple Profile Level 0 plus 13K voice)



I can see that you would want more information on the format than just

Oh, this question was directed not at you, but at the complete email thread,
so don't worry.
