There's no point supporting these parasitic business models. Use royalty-free video and audio formats.
AV1 for video: https://aomedia.org/specifications/av1/
And Opus for audio: https://opus-codec.org/

“Access Advance and Avanci have published rates for a pool asserting content royalties across AVC, HEVC, VP9, VVC, and AV1 that could push major platforms toward nine-figure annual exposure.”

Yes, they've made claims on AV1, claims that have never been tested in court.
You need to understand that these are parasitic businesses. They didn't contribute to AV1. They didn't develop AV1. But they will make any claim they think they can get away with.
Show me the court case they've won that validates their claims on AV1.

I was going to suggest you missed vorbis ogg. So I went looking for a link, I found out this:
> Since 2013, the Xiph.Org Foundation has stated that the use of Vorbis should be deprecated in favor of the Opus codec
I never heard of Opus, so some links:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorbis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opus_(audio_format)
From what I can find, seems opus only supports audio. ogg also has a video format (ogv), odd it is suggested ogg was superseded by opus. Maybe I am missing something ?

Ogg is a container format. It contains audio and video tracks: https://www.xiph.org/ogg/
It's like Matroska: https://www.matroska.org/what_is_matroska.html
